The protest at Nilakkal was part of that only, he said.Claiming that the CPM is always with the faithful people, the CPM leader said the BJP and the Congress were fooling people in the name of faith.At the same time the Supreme Court order on Sabarimala was the result of an appeal filed by Indian Young Lawyers Association, which has links to the BJP, claimed the CPM state secretary.
