Three injured in clashes

KASARAGOD: Three persons were injured in separate clashes between Congress and CPI (M) workers at Cheruvathoor and Cheemeni areas in southern part of the district on Thursday.

The injured are P. Narayanan (43) a Congress worker and driver of a private bus service based at Cheruvathoor; Babu (34) a CPI (M) worker who works as cleaner of a private bus operating between Cheemeni and Cheruvathoor and Mohanan (33) a head load worker at Cheemeni and a member of INTUC. The clashes began after Mr. Narayanan was attacked by a group of people.

Private buses plying between Cheemeni and Cheruvathoor did not operate on Thursday following a strike call by unions of bus workers to protest against attack on bus workers.

Tension continues in the area.
