Rahul Gandhi, who is on a three-day visit to his constituency in Wayanad, visited the office along with other senior leaders of the party and took stock of the damage.

Wayanad: Congress leader and Wayanad MP Rahul Gandhi on Friday visited his office in Wayanad, which was reportedly vandalized by the activists of SFI, the students’ wing of the ruling CPI (M), over the buffer zone issue and termed the act as “irresponsible.”

Rahul Gandhi, who is on a three-day visit to his constituency in Wayanad, visited the office along with other senior leaders of the party and took stock of the damage.

He later, interacted with the reporters  and said that it is the office of the people of Wayanad and what had been done by the Left students’ cadre was “quite an unfortunate thing.” But, he made it clear that violence never resolves problems and he does not harbor any anger or hostility towards them.

“Everywhere in the country, you see the idea that violence will resolve problems. And, violence never resolves problems… It’s not a good thing to do.. they acted irresponsibly. But, I don’t have any anger or hostility towards them,” Mr. Gandhi said.

Mr. Gandhi further, called the SFI activists who indulged in violence “kids”.

Last week, a protest march of the SFI against Rahul Gandhi turned violent after a group of left activists allegedly barged into his office here and vandalized it, prompting Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan to strongly condemn the incident and warn of stern action against the miscreants.

Strongly condemning “the act of violence” by SFI at its top leader’s office at Kalpetta in Rahul Gandhi’s Lok Sabha constituency Wayanad, the Congress staged a statewide protest, which eventually turned violent in some areas.

The incident occurred when the Students’ Federation of India (SFI) activists marched to Rahul Gandhi’s Office alleging his inaction on the issue of buffer zones around forests.
