Kerala Congress Leader Arrested After Obstruction of CM Satheesan's Convoy
Kerala Congress leader Anil Kumar, also known as Chenthi Ani, was arrested after allegedly obstructing Chief Minister V D Satheesan's convoy in Thiruvananthapuram. The incident occurred when a group organizing a separate Sree Narayana Guru event signaled the CM's vehicle to stop, though this event was not on Satheesan's official schedule. Satheesan briefly stopped, engaged in a verbal exchange with Ani, then continued his journey. Police have registered a case and launched an investigation into the matter.
