People from all walks of life participated in the State-wide human chain organised by the Democratic Youth Federation of India (DYFI) to mark their protest against Centre’s neglect and discrimination towards the State.
Thousands joined the 59-km leg of the protest, in Kollam district, which stretched from Oachira to Kadambattukonam raising slogans and taking an oath. Apart from the elderly and youth, cashew workers, farmers, teachers, traders, artists, writers and priests were part of the protest. Large crowds thronged the national highway to witness the human chain.
