Thiruvananthapuram, July 30 (IBNS): The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Sunday called for a state-wide bandh in Kerala following the death of a Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) worker Rajesh Edavakode after his palm was chopped off, reports said.

Rajesh, 34, died in a private hospital in Thiruvananthapuram after the brutal attack left his palm chopped off.

Inspector General of Police Manoj Abraham told NDTV that: "The attack was by a gang of men involving CPM (Communist Party of India (Marxist) activists. However, there was a long history of enmity between one of the accused and the victim. We are also probing any angle of political motive."

Rajesh died two days after a BJP state office was attacked.

In reply to the same, CPM state secretary Kodiyeri Balakrishnan's son's house was attacked in Thiruvananthapuram.
