Irked over the continuing protest by Students Federation of India (SFI) activists, Governor Arif Mohammed Khan on Monday again stepped out of his official vehicle and confronted the agitators who waved black flags at his convoy near Mattannur in Kannur district.
The incident took place when Mr. Khan was on his way to the Kannur International Airport after visiting the family members of those killed in the wild animal attacks in Wayanad district. Seeing the SFI workers who reportedly came close to the convoy with back flags, Mr. Khan asked the driver to stop his car to face them directly.
Though the police and security guards tried to pacify Mr. Khan, he was determined to meet them. He almost spent five minutes out of his vehicle causing tense moments. He again made it clear to the police that he would get down from his vehicle whenever he saw such protesters near his convoy.
