CPM to chalk out plan to resist attacks on ideology

THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: The CPM state leadership is all set to chalk out its strategy to effectively resist the onslaught against the party’s Left ideology and defend the credibility of its most trusted leader – Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan.

The party strategy will be based on its declared political position of equidistance and opposition to both majority and minority communalism.

The state committee meet to begin on Friday will discuss the secretariat’s position in this regard. The party is expected to strongly condemn its former comrade P V Anvar and the forces allegedly supporting him.

Hitting out openly against Anvar by raising many issues linked with the latter, the CPM has now labelled Anvar as one who indulges in blatant minority communalism.
