Kick-starting the much-anticipated statewide 'Janaraksha Yatra', Shah slammed the ruling Communist party for orchestrating political murders of RSS and BJP activists. The BJP Chief alleged that Communists have destroyed peaceful atmosphere in Kerala, where more than 120 BJP and RSS workers were murdered.

Commenting on the state-sponsored violence under Vijayan government Shah mentioned that BJP would use all the democratic means to fight the Left Front rule in the state. He urged people of Kerala to dethrone the Communists from power and bring a BJP government in its place to ensure peace and prosperity.

Remembering the martyrs, Shah underlined that his party will never forget their sacrifice. Shah further asked the Communist party to introspect about their continuous failures in electoral politics where comrades are being wiped out in the country.

Earlier on his arrival Shah, in a traditional attire, visited the Rajarajeshwara temple in the northern district along with Kerala BJP Chief K Rajaasekharan. The 15-day yatra in Kerala against CPI (M) government will conclude on October 17.
