Kasargod, Dec 1: The foundation for Kasargod government medical college at Ukkinadka was laid ten years ago. UDF medical college protection committee staged unique protests of begging condemning the neglect of the state government and its failure to start full scale activities for its construction.

UDF is always prepared to protest against the Left-wing government which neglected the subsequent work of the medical college started by the government,” he said.
