MLA seeks fresh probe into disruption of Thrissur Pooram — Photo credit: The Hindu

Thrissur MLA, Rajan J. Pallan has urged Home Minister Ramesh Chennithala to order a comprehensive reinvestigation into the disruption of Thrissur Pooram in 2024, alleging that the actual culprits had not been identified.

The 2024 festival was thrown into disarray following what Mr. Pallan described as unilateral and unnecessary restrictions imposed by the police, which caused hardship to festival organisers and pooram enthusiasts. The restrictions, allegedly imposed deliberately, and a subsequent lathi-charge disrupted key rituals and triggered widespread protests. The then Chief Minister later ordered an inquiry into the incident.
