Shreehari Borikar, who is All India In-charge of State Universities, informed the media persons that in the last 18 months over 18 persons in Kerala belonging to RSS and non-Communist ideology were barbarously murdered by the CPM activists and supporters. Among them, 14 were RSS, BJP and BMS activists. Among the victims of left violence, one is a woman while the other victims belonged to socially and economically marginalized sections of the society, he said.
He further said that during the past one year several cases of gruesome attacks against the ABVP workers were reported from various colleges in Kerala. He alleged that the CPM was explicitly and implicitly involved in these political murders.
Borikar further alleged that the present CPM government was shielding the culprits and even sponsoring the violence against their ideological opponents. The state government has failed to take any appropriate and effective action to punish the perpetrators of the violence or even initiate the legal action against them.
“There is a widespread concern among the relatives of the victims that the investigations are not conducted in proper manner. It is also worrying that the police are acting under the political pressure and CPM is reaping political gains through such misuse of state and political power”, he alleged.
Referring to State High Court observation the ABVP said that the Kerala High Court also has expressed its concern over the growing political killings in the state while considering a PIL filed in the HC vide no. WP(C) 32894 of 2017.
He stated that the epicentre of this violence is Kannur district the home district of the chief minister Pinarayi Vijayan who also holds the home portfolio. Ironically immediately after he assumed the office, multiple political murders and violence as well as attempts to murder the political and social activists increased, CPM activists were spreading this type of terror in all the colleges in Kerala, the ABVP leaders alleged saying that the CPM along with its sister organisations DIFY and SFI have been targeting the ABVP workers in the college campuses in the state.
