CPI States It Will Respond If CPI(M) and LDF Face Political Targeting
Binoy Viswam, CPI Keralam State secretary, stated the party will not remain passive if the CPI(M) and LDF face political targeting amid the Enforcement Directorate's recommendation to register an FIR against CPI(M) leader Pinarayi Vijayan and family in the CMRL-Exalogic bribery case. Viswam emphasized the CPI's clear stance without elaborating further and noted ongoing differences between Left parties regarding assembly positions. The CPI awaits further details before commenting more extensively.
