Police probe into ED report on CMRL case: CPI(M) leader P. Rajeeve alleges Keralam CM aiding interests of BJP
Alleges that Chief Minister is setting the ground for BJP to reap political gains by trying to weaken CPI(M)
CPI(M) leader P. Rajeeve has accused Keralam Chief Minister V. D. Satheesan of aiding the political interests of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) by ordering a police inquiry into the CMRL-Exalogic payoff controversy. Rajeeve alleged that Satheesan is setting the ground for the BJP to reap political gains by trying to weaken the CPI(M).
The CPI(M) leader pointed out that the governments in Punjab, Tamil Nadu and West Bengal had earlier rejected similar attempts by the ED to act against leaders of the Opposition by taking a position that the central agency is trying to act above the powers enjoyed by the State governments.
