: Wayanad District Collector Kesavendrakumar has termed one-sided the decision of the government to withdraw the case registered against eight activists of the Kerala Students Union (KSU) in connection with allegedly smearing him with motor oil while he was Director of Higher Secondary Education in Thiruvananthapuram.
