The News Minute | October 28, 2014 | 3.45 pm IST "Kiss of Love" volunteers faced the wrath of Yuva Morcha and Jamaath members during a discussion hosted by Mathrubhumi TV channel on Friday. As per reports the program anchor challenged the volunteers to kiss in front of everyone, during the discussion. Rashmi and Rahul, organizers of the event, and a real life couple, took up the challenge and kissed each other on the cheeks. This angered Yuva Morcha and Jamaath members who were also participants at the event. Kiss of Love organizers claimed on their Facebook page that, “Yuvamorcha attacks Kiss of Love Volunteers at the floor of a channel. Yuvamorcha activists assaulted the volunteers of "Kiss of Love"during a discussion held by Mathrubhumi channel.” But sources in Mathrubhumi said it was more a war of words than any physical assault. Not just the Yuva Morcha and Jamaath, Ram Sene leader Pramod Muthalik too has said that he will not let the event go on in Kochi and will send the Kerala unit of its organization to disrupt the event. Meanwhile, some student leaders of the Left and Congress have come out in support of Kiss of Love. The 'Kiss of Love' is an event scheduled for November 2 in Marine Drive, Kochi which has asked protestors to come, kiss and hug and send a message to moral police. Earlier during a press meet the “Kiss of Love” volunteers were attacked by some people at Marine Drive in Kochi. Photo Courtsey : "Kiss of Love" Facebook page
