Ernakulam (Kerala) [India], September 16 (ANI): Kochi Police on Tuesday detained members of the Kerala Students Union Wing of Congress protesting outside the office of the Commissioner of Police.

Earlier, she also visited the Priyadarshini Tea factory at Mananthavady and interacted with the workers.
Priyanka Gandhi arrived in Wayanad on Friday for a 10-day visit to her constituency. Earlier, she visited the Bishop House in Thamarassery and met Bishop Remigiose Inchananiyil on Sunday.

Speaking to reporters, Bishop Remigiose Inchananiyil said, "It was a totally personal visit. She requested this personal visit. Personal things were discussed; no political issues or requirements of the community were discussed. But I presented my issues in front of her. Main issue I addressed was to represent the community in the Parliament and the issue related to the conflict between man and wild animals."He further said, "We are attacked by elephants or tigers. We are living 10 km away from the forest. Tiger recently killed a man. I asked her to represent the poor people in the Parliament." (ANI)
