By Express News ServiceTHIRUVANANTHAPURAM: Opposition leader Ramesh Chennithala and deputy leader M K Muneer sought government’s clarification on CPM Kozhikode district secretary P Mohanan’s statement of Islamic terrorists providing support to Maoists. UDF leaders while maintaining that terror had to be opposed at any cost were against creating the myth of Islamophobia, which they stated was Sangh Parivar politics. The leaders said that the CPM district secretary’s statement was supportive of Sangh Parivar’s political stand and Kummanam Rajashekharan welcoming the statement was a clear indication of CPM’s policy shift. P Mohanan’s statement provides necessary fodder to the Sangh Parivar forces, the leaders said. Meanwhile, KPCC president Mullappally Ramachandran has alleged that the CPM and state government are implementing RSS agenda across the state..
