A 20-year-old BJP worker was brutally murdered allegedly by CPI(M) activists in Kerala's Thrissur district on Sunday night.
According to media reports, Nirmal was stabbed during an altercation at a local temple festival. Although he was rushed to the hospital, he succumbed to the injuries.
Following the murder, the BJP has called for a strike in the district on Monday.
According to media reports, police suspect that personal rivalry was behind the incident.
This incident comes barely a month after another BJP worker was murdered in Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan's constituency Dharmadam in Kannur.
