Kasargod, Oct 1: The Indian Union Muslim League (IUML) has decided to take out a mass march to the Mangalore International Airport in Mangalore in protest against the alleged harassment by the airport officials to Kerala-bound passengers, especially those hailing from Kasargod.
A meeting of senior party leaders here on Tuesday alleged that Emigration and Customs officials at the airport tortured Kerala-bound passengers by forcing them to wait at the busy airport for hours on the pretext of obtaining travel clearance, besides labelling them as terrorists during the verification process.
The IUML district unit, with the involvement of its activists and people's representatives, including legislators, would soon take out a march to the airport to stop the œharassment tactics, the meeting, chaired by party district unit president Cherkalam Abdulla, said.
MLAs N.A. Nellikkunnu and P.B. Abdul Razak, and former party minister C. T. Ahamedali attended the meeting.
