Coimbatore: Condemning the selection of Manikanda Bhoopathi as CEO of Kalvi TV, the state's educational channel, the cadres of Campus Front of India staged an agitation in front of the South Taluk office on Wednesday.

Alleging nepotism in the appointment, the agitators alleged that the even though many qualified candidates had applied for the post, they were overlooked and Manikanda Bhoopathi was selected as he was close of friend of TV journalist and You Tuber Rangaraj Pandey

Led by District president Ashik Ahmed, the agitators urged that the government should withdraw the appointment, as many qualified candidates were not called for interview, which raises doubt about the dubious nature of the appointment.

The agitators who raised slogans wondered if TN's decision is being influenced by Nagpur, the headquarters of RSS.
