A 250-strong mob attacked the CPI-M headquarters here Sunday, injuring 10 Left activists and eight policemen.

Yechuri blamed Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) activists for the attack and said, "What else do you expect from people who did not leave even Mahatama Gandhi? They have simply revealed their fascist face."

Maintaining that the attack was unprovoked, Yechuri denied it was in retaliation of any attacks by Left party workers against BJP and RSS workers in Kannur and elsewhere in Kerala.
