Attacks on offices and buildings of the Nair Service Society (NSS) continued in the district on Thursday.
The violence had started in the wake of Nair Service Society general secretary G. Sukumaran Nair's statements against Chief Minister V.S. Achuthanandan.
After NSS offices, including Karayogam buildings at Muhamma and surrounding areas, were targeted on Tuesday and Wednesday, the Karayogam building at Punnapra, the home village of Mr. Achuthanandan, was found damaged on Thursday morning.
