THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: Yesterday morning around 11.30 am, a dispute turned violent as approximately 80 people gathered outside the Secret Service section of the secretariat. The conflict was sparked when the Joint Convener of a left-wing organization and team confronted an assistant in this section. This assistant had developed a friendship with another assistant from a different department during a train journey, both of whom belong to the same organization.
Following this incident, the accused assistant was transferred from the home department. It is alleged that under the Joint Convener's leadership, about eighty people gained unauthorized access to the internal secret department and engaged in a physical altercation. It should be noted that the Secret Section of the Home Department is restricted to authorized personnel only.
Reports indicate that both parties involved have registered complaints regarding the altercation that occurred in the secret section which is located near the office of the Additional Chief Secretary of the Public Administration Department within the Main Block. There is also information suggesting that the general secretary of the left organization was present in the secret department during this incident.
