Amit Shah lashes out at Kerala CM, says ‘politics of violence’ is in the nature of communists

BJP chief Amit Shah on Sunday said that “politics of violence” is in the nature of the communists as he lashed out at the CPI(M) over the political violence in Kerala.
Addressing the Delhi leg of the ‘Jan Raksha Yatra’, the BJP’s ongoing campaign to highlight “left atrocities” in Kerala, Shah asserted that no amount of intimidation can stop the lotus (BJP’s symbol) from blooming in the Left-ruled state.

He hit out at Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan, alleging that the maximum killings of BJP and RSS workers have taken place in the latter’s home district.
