KOZHIKODE: K Muraleedharan MP has brutally slammed the attacks against Congress offices following the in-flight protest against the chief minister by Youth Congress activists.

“Congress activists have only protested by shouting slogans inside the flight. Verbal protests are not wrong. But, E P Jayarajan kicked the protesters in the flight. A case should be registered against E P Jayarajan. However, it doesn’t seem like the Kerala police would register a case. We will discuss and decide on lodging a complaint with the union home ministry and the civil aviation ministry”, said Muraleedharan.

“The head of the Gandhi statue was cut off by the CPM. They are equal to the RSS. The CPM is saying that they will protect the chief minister. But, this is a proof that the home ministry is a failure. Those who protested in the flight have only expressed public sentiments. They have only shouted slogans unarmed. The party will protect them. If we are attacked on streets, then we will strike back. We are the opposition. It is not the opposition’s responsibility to bring peace in the state. It is up to the rulers to provide security for the people. Preaching Gandhism doesn’t matter anymore. We also don’t have police complaints anymore. If they strike, then we will hit back,” said Muraleedharan.
