- EXPRESS NEWS SERVICE @T'Puram

The Neyyattinkara police on Thursday registered a case against five RSS-BJP workers for obstructing Tushar Gandhi, the great grandson of Mahatma Gandhi, and raising slogans against him.

The police registered the case suo motu against the BJP-RSS workers, who could be identified, after the incident created ripples in socio-political circles.

The BJP-RSS workers waylaid Tushar at Neyyattinkara on Wednesday evening while he was returning after delivering a speech during the inauguration of Gandhian late P Gopinathan Nair's statue.

Tushar had criticised Sangh Parivar in his speech and that provoked the BJP-RSS workers to block his car and heckle him, the police said.
