KOZHIKODE: CPM state secretary Kodiyeri Balakrishnan tried to belittle the protests against the SilverLine project saying that even if protesters take away all the survey stones laid for the project, the demarcation survey will be taken forward by bringing stones from other states. He added that the government would not surrender before such protests.
Speaking to media persons at Malappuram on Tuesday, Balakrishnan said that what was going on against the K-Rail project was a political stir and it would be countered by LDF politically. "Let them conduct agitations at all places. Even if they take away the stones, there won't be any shortage of stones in the state. Even if there are no stones left in the state, we will bring stones from other states and will conduct the laying of survey stones. The government will not surrender before such protests," he said.
