Alappuzha (Kerala) | A case has been registered against around 500 ruling CPI(M) workers in connection with a mass rally organised here against its former leader G Sudhakaran, who had quit the Marxist party recently over differences with the leadership.
The case was registered by Punnapra police against the protesters, including the Marxist party's Ambalappuzha area committee secretary Shyamji, for allegedly causing traffic disruption during the march held on March 14.
According to police, the accused unlawfully assembled and took out a procession from Paravur Assembly junction along the national highway to a ground there, where they held a public meeting between 5.30 pm and 7 pm.
The procession allegedly obstructed vehicular movement and caused inconvenience to the public, they said, adding that a case has been registered under relevant sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS).
The CPI(M) had organised the rally targeting Sudhakaran, who recently quit the party and is preparing to contest the upcoming Assembly polls as an independent candidate.
However, Sudhakaran had said that the party had failed to ensure a huge participation in the rally against him.
