On 19th December 2021, Ranjith Sreenivas was murdered at his residence by Social Democratic Party of India (SDPI) workers. SDPI is the political arm of Islamist outfit Popular Front of India. The incident took place in the Alappuzha district of Kerala. The unidentified perpetrators broke into his house in the wee hours of Sunday and hacked him to death. He was a member of the BJP Kerala committee and OBC Morcha (State) Secretary. Furthermore, he had contested as a BJP candidate from the Alappuzha constituency in 2016. The BJP leader was an advocate by occupation.
