Front to stage protests at scores of centres today
The tussle between the Left Democratic Front and civic bodies led by the the United Democratic Front - Kannur Municipal Corporation and three panchayats - has intensified in the district. The bone of contention is alleged deficiencies in COVID management by the civic bodies. The LDF is organising protests on Tuesday at 250 centres in Kannur Corporation, 21 centres in Kadampur, 15 centres in Valapattanam, and 17 centres in Ayyankunnu. CPI(M) district secretary M.V. Jayarajan said that the LDF had decided to organise the protest demanding opening of community kitchens, provision of essential services to guest workers and in-patients, delivery of essential items, including medicines, to the public through home delivery, and ending the alleged discrimination in the issuance of passes and taking up of pre-monsoon cleaning activities.
