CPI(M) slams Vellappally Natesan for questioning Shamseer’s secular credentials
Party State secretariat says Vellappally’s statement — that the former Speaker has the mentality of the Indian Union Muslim League — provides fodder for communalism. Pinarayi terms the comment absurd
The Communist Party of India (Marxist) has strongly condemned Vellappally Natesan, general secretary of Sree Narayana Dharma Paripalana Yogam, for questioning A.N. Shamseer's secular credentials. Natesan's remarks have been labeled "absurd" by opposition leader Pinarayi Vijayan, who stated that leaders in the CPI(M) rise to positions after years of hard work in society.
The CPI(M) has stated that the party works for social change by organizing people from all sections and dismisses divisive views as deplorable. The party emphasized that its members strive towards a common goal and that the Yogam has played a significant role in shaping Keralam's secularism based on the Sree Narayana philosophy of religious equality.
