The CPI(M) activists staged a protest at the land allotted to the LuLu Group near RK Beach for the construction of a mall, demanding cancellation of the allotment. They also sought that a CBI probe be ordered into the ‘illegal land allotment’ to the MNC.
CPI(M) district secretary M. Jaggunaidu wondered how an MNC could be allowed to operate near RK Beach, where the Indian Navy organises operational demonstrations with VVIPs such as the President, Prime Minister, Defence Minister, Chief Minister and Deputy Chief Minister in attendance.
