Alappuzha, Feb 25: A young worker of RSS was hacked to death allegedly by members of Social Democratic Party of India (SDPI), the political wing of Popular Front of India, during a clash in Alappuzha district on Wednesday night.
Police identified the victim as Nandu alias Rahul Krishna, 22, the RSS shakha mukhya shikshak at Nagamkulangara in Wayalar village panchayat in Alappuzha.
Three activists of the RSS and SDPI were seriously injured in the clash. A strong contingent police was deployed in the area to prevent escalation of violence.
