A group of BSP workers allegedly stoned the office of a Malayalam daily in Thiruvananthapuram protesting a cartoon carried by it on the currency note garland controversy involving Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Mayawati. According to a spokesman of the newspaper, "Tejas", the slogan-shouting group, holding the BSP flag, smashed the office sign board and damaged a vehicle parked before it last evening. The protesters alleged that their leader was depicted in a unsavoury manner in the cartoon unbecoming of the<br/><br/>journalistic ethics and values. Police said a case had been registered in connection with the incident.<br/>
