An inter-caste couple and activists staged a symbolic protest by covering their eyes with a black ribbon at the Kovilpatti Revenue Divisional Office (RDO) on Monday, condemning the alleged derogatory remarks made by the Tahsildar regarding their marriage.
The protest was led by local activists Rajesh Kanna, advocate Saravanan, and Paramasivam, who also submitted a petition to the RDO, seeking disciplinary proceedings against the tahsildar. The couple, along with the activists, tied black ribbons over their faces.
