The Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) unit in Kerala plans to file complaints at all police stations in the state against assembly speaker and MLA AN Shamseer in connection with his comments about Lord Ganesh at a public event in Ernakulam on July 22.

After inaugurating a scheme at a government school in Kadayirippu, Shamseer had lashed out at the BJP-led Union government for tweaking school syllabus to allegedly “propagate myths” among students.

BJP leader RS Rajeev, on behalf of the state committee, sent a complaint to Thiruvananthapuram police commissioner’s office against the speaker’s remarks.

In a Facebook post, the party state unit said, “The Speaker …aimed at creating communal conflict. His actions are punishable under section 153A and 295A of the IPC.This is a violation of the oath and is anti-constitutional.Hence, a case should be filed against him and he must be arrested ” VHP officials were not available for comment.
