Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), blazing all guns at Communist Party of India (Marxist) here on Friday, urged the Central Government to intervene in the killing of its workers in Kerala.
RSS accused the CPM-led Kerala government of not taking action against the killing of its workers claiming it was "politically beneficial" for CPM.
"Centre must intervene in state sponsored violence in Kerala," said RSS Joint General Secretary Dattatreya Hosabale
RSS has also passed a resolution in RSS Akhil Bharatiya Karyakari Mandal meet regarding these attacks on RSS by CPM cadres in the state.
"We have requested Kerala government to take strict action towards bringing this series of murders to an end," said Hosabale.
A series of clashes between CPM and BJP-RSS activists had rocked Thiruvanathauram last week. In which a 34-year-old RSS leader was murdered in Kozhikode.
