BSP workers stone media office over cartoon on Maya

STAFF WRITER 22:42 HRS IST
Thiruvananthapuram, Mar 19 (PTI) A group of BSP workers allegedly
stoned the office of a Malayalam daily here today protesting a cartoon
carried by it on the currency note garland controversy involving Uttar
Pradesh Chief Minister and party supremo Mayawati.

According to a spokesman of the newspaper, "Tejas", the
slogan-shouting group, holding the BSP flag, smashed the office sign
board and damaged a vehicle parked before it.

The protesters alleged that their leader was depicted in a "unsavoury
manner" in the cartoon "unbecoming of the journalistic ethics and
values".

Police said a case had been registered in connection with the incident.
