Mananthavadi ∙ ‘No more humans need to vote, animals should vote’ – the question is for Ajeesh’s son Alan, who was killed in a wild cat attack in Wayanad the other day. Allan, a fourth class student, raised this question when ministers A.K.Saseendran, M.B.Rajesh and K.Rajan came home. Allan also asked the ministers if it is possible to drive an elephant with beedi crackers.

Ajeesh’s relatives and locals protested the ministers’ late visit. Residents and relatives raised complaints regarding the continuous attacks by wild animals. The elephant that arrived from Karnataka has not been caught for days. Action is needed on this. If the animals enter the country like this, the people will have to go to the forest.

No matter what happens, the officers are not allowed to watch. If this situation continues, the people will kill the wild animals that come to the country. You did not come to the church to buy the votes of monkeys and wild animals; Didn’t people vote? Relatives and natives also demanded that the people who are in charge should fulfill their responsibility.

After the review meeting in Bateri, the ministers visited the homes of the deceased in the afternoon. The first visit was to Prajeesh’s house, which was killed by a tiger. He also visited the houses of Ajeesh at Mananthavadi Padamala Panachi and Paul at Pakkam Vellachal, who were killed by a wild cat. Considering the possibility of trouble, the visit of the ministers was accompanied by heavy police presence.
