THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: The CPM state secretariat has observed that there has been a calculated attempt in the recent past to destroy the communal harmony prevailing in the state. However, it has not succeeded since the people of the state are well aware of such motives and the people behind such campaigns.
Speaking after the state secretariat meeting, CPM acting secretary A Vijayaraghavan said that CPM is of the view that such attempts will be strongly resisted by rallying the people of the state against it. BJP and religious fundamentalist organisations are behind such moves. BJP is not just trying to create a split in the majority community, there is now an attempt in creating rift among the minority communities also, he added.
He said that through social media and also by other means several forces had tried to destroy the peaceful atmosphere prevailing in the state. But there was no favourable response from the state for such extremism and that was the reason why all such attempts have failed here.
“Any particular religion should not be blamed for the extremist activities carried out by a section of people or any fundamental groups. Such attempts will destabilize the communal harmony prevailing in the state. The CPM has always stood for the unity of the people and no such attempts to destroy the state’s secular credentials will be tolerated,” he said.
Replying to queries, Vijayaraghavan said Indian Union Muslim League is going through its worst internal crisis. The anti-women policies of IUML will badly damage the party.
