Kochi: Activists from the Kerala Students Union (KSU) and Youth Congress staged a protest on Friday, waving black flags at Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan, demanding his resignation over allegations involving his daughter, T Veena, in an "illegal payment" scandal named by the Serious Fraud Investigation Office (SFIO).
The protest occurred as Vijayan arrived at the Guest House in Kochi to inaugurate the first All India Police Badminton Cluster.
However, the officers deployed on the premises managed the situation by taking the activists into custody.
A section of Youth Congress workers entered the premises of the Guest House and waved black flags.
A protesting woman alleged that CM's daughter was involved in the illegal payment scam, and CM also has a role in it.
The protesters also demanded an appointment for the civil police officer rank holders who have been staging a protest in front of the Secretariat here for the past several days.
