The killing of BJP and RSS leaders in Kerala
In recent years, Kerala has become the epicenter of violence against BJP and RSS activists. Last November, a 26-year-old Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh worker Sanjith was hacked to death in front of his wife in Ellapully, Palakkad.
In broad daylight, the assailants who came in a car way hit Sanjith’s bike and attacked him in front of many people, including his wife.
In December, another BJP leader Ranjith Sreenivasan was murdered at his residence by suspected SDPI workers. The incident took place in the Alappuzha district of Kerala. The unidentified perpetrators broke into his house in the wee hours of Sunday and hacked Ranjith to death.
