An all-party peace meeting convened under the leadership of Minister for Power K. Krishnankutty on Monday called upon the people to stand united for peace and to reject the overtures of communal groups trying to create divide in society.
The meeting, convened in the wake of two back-to-back murders of Social Democratic Party of India (SDPI) and Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) workers on Friday and Saturday in the district, decided to initiate dialogues between the district administration and religious organisations to ease the tension.
The meeting pointed out that the police had enhanced their Intelligence measures to prevent recurrence of any retributive actions in the district. Mr. Krishnankutty said that both the murders were of extremist character, and the police would make strong and decisive interventions to avoid their recurrence.
