BJP, Hindu Munnani offices attacked in Chennai

BJP NATIONAL EXECUTIVE MEET

The BJP headquarters and Hindu Munnani office in the city were attacked today by alleged DMK supporters protesting the reported 'fatwa' by former BJP MP Ramvilas Vedanti against DMK patriarch and Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M Karunanidhi.

The houses of the BJP's Tamil Nadu unit president H Raja and his father-in-law were also attacked allegedly by DMK men at Karaikudi in the neighbouring Sivaganga district last night.

Hundreds of alleged DMK workers today ransacked the BJP's Tamil Nadu unit headquarters in the city while staging a demonstration against Vedanti's reported 'fatwa' against Karunanidhi for his remarks against Lord Ram.

They pelted stones, damaged vehicles parked inside the office complex and broke the flag mast of the party after ransacking the office and breaking the window panes.
