Kanaka Durga attacked by her mother-in-law, hospitalised
Kanaka Durga, who along with Bindu successfully visited Sabarimala and entered Sannidhanam during the second attempt, was attacked by her mother-in-law on Tuesday after she returned to her husband's home at Angadippuram on Tuesday. She belongs to an orthodox Nair family and had drawn ire from relatives and family members after entering Sabarimala.
Police said she was taken to Government District Hospital at Perinthalmanna after she suffered minor injuries on her head by being beaten up with a wooden plank.
It was in the first week of January, Kanaka Durga along with Bindu Hariharan managed to enter the hill temple. She left her place in the second week of December, 2018, for attending a meeting at Thiruvananthapuram. But, on December 24, she attempted to visit Sabarimala with Kozhikode native Bindu. But they were forced to abandon their trip due to strong protest from the part of a section of devotees at Pamba and Sannidhanam. The family of Kanakadurga was reportedly not aware of her plan to visit the hill shrine.
