Kerala, December 10, 2022 (PPI-OT):The Communist Party of India-Marxist (CPI-M) has said the Indian Union Muslim League (IUML) is not a communal party but is working for minorities. CPI-M Kerala state secretary M V Govindan talking to reporters in Thiruvananthapuram praised the key partner of the opposition United Democratic Front for not agreeing with the Congress on the issue of the move by Governor Arif Mohammed Khan, who according to the ruling front, was trying to “saffronise” the universities in Kerala.
Indicating a clear shift in its tactical approach towards the Indian Union Muslim League, he also recalled the open alliance his party had with the party controlled by Panakkad Thangal family to form a government in 1967 in Kerala under the leadership of stalwart late E M S Namboothiripad. “Indian Union Muslim League is a party that works democratically for the minorities. We are not saying that it is a communal party,” Govindan said.
