In view of the attacks on some office bearers of Hindu outfits in the state, Hindu Makkal Katchi (HMK) today sought protection to its leaders in the district.
In a petition to the District Collector, the outfit cited incidents of hurling of bomb on the residence of its president, Arjun Sampath and attacks on other leaders, police said.
Considering the increased attacks on leaders of Hindu outfits, the authorities should provide protection to HMK leaders, the petition said.
The organisation has also urged the administration to bring to book those behind the attacks.
