CPM – The CPM clarifies the position on the Muslim League issue | Malayalam News, Kerala News | Manoram online

Thiruvananthapuram ∙ CPM will take the approach which welcomed the LDF and not the Muslim League but their positions. This agreement was in the secretariat of state which met yesterday. This stance comes at a time when Secretary of State MV Govindan’s claim that the League is not a municipal party has become a point of contention within the LDF itself and has given rise to various interpretations.

The previous secretariat of state had decided to publicly praise the progressive positions taken by the Muslim League in the recent past, both inside and outside the assembly, including towards the governor. After clarifying this, Govindan answered questions and said that the League is not a municipal party but a democratic party working for minorities. The CPI secretary of state spoke out against the position taken by the CPM, praising the League, which is the main opposition party. The league has also made clear its position that it is an integral part of the UDF.

The CPM believes there is no need for litigation in the LDF over the League’s name. He will continue to underline the positions taken by the League towards the Congress. We will also take a stand that it is our duty to expose the differences in the opposition. It will also be clarified that this is not an invitation to the League to join the LDF. This will also be explained in the discussion with the CPI. Last day, MV Govindan had declared that there is no dispute in this regard, specifying that he had not responded to the objection expressed by Kanam. MV Govindan did not meet the media yesterday after the secretariat meeting. The meeting did not consider the return of Saji Cherian to cabinet. The group’s approach is for Saji to return but there is no rush.
