Hyderabad: Activists held for protest

Hyderabad: Over a dozen ABVP activists were briefly arrested when they tried to enter RTC Bhavan, where Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan was speaking. The police had deployed a large force to thwart the protest. Earlier, BJP MLA Raja Singh had threatened to disrupt Mr Vijayan’s meeting. The protest was staged against the murder of RSS activists in Kerala; the BJP accuses the Left government of soft-pedalling.
