Keralam Assembly Speaker rules against bringing fibre lathi into House
Kerala Assembly speaker Thiruvanchoor Radhakrishnan prohibited the entry of a fibre police baton into the legislative chamber. The decision followed a protest by CPI(M) MLA V. Joy, who presented a broken fibre lathi on October 12 while requesting permission to move an adjournment motion concerning police actions against SFI activists in Thiruvananthapuram. The speaker's ruling emphasized adherence to procedural rules.
