Kerala CM Omen Chandy slams the Delhi police swooping down on Kerala Bhavan. Chandy says the police should have shown restraint. "This is not a private hotel it is a Kerala govt establishment!"


Congress leader Tom Vadakkan added, "I have eaten at Kerala Bhawan, beef was never served there. Delhi police is indulging in moral policing on Hindu Sena's orders."


A PCR call complaining about beef curry being served at Kerala House near Jantar Mantar in Delhi threw the police into a tizzy on Monday, and a team had to be sent there to avert any "untoward incident".

The call was received by the police control room around 4.15 pm, and the caller, claiming to be from a fringe right-wing group, told the police that beef was being served at Kerala House, said a senior official.


CPI (M) MP MB Rajesh said that the incident was 'shocking and shameful' and the police entering the kitchen of the premises was 'not acceptable'.
