“These parties and governments will have to face strong resistance if they continue with their plans on implementing Sachar report.’’

As the initial step, Yuva Morcha will conduct a protest march in Kozhikode on March 11.

Similar marches will also be held in Kochi and Thiruvananthapuram on March 12 and 14 respectively. Krishnadas demanded that the government should order investigation against the MLA who is alleged to be linked with the accused terrorist Yahya Khan.

He said that the BJP will hold a march to various railway stations on March 4 to protest the continuing negligence towards state by Railway Minister Lalu Prasad.
