Indian Union Muslim League (IUML) national general secretary P.K. Kunhalikutty said here on Wednesday that the CPI(M) should examine the situation that led to its State council member K. Anil Kumar to speak against headscarves of Muslim girls in Malappuram.
CPI(M) State secretary M.V. Govindan had rejected the remarks of Mr. Anil Kumar saying that it was not the party’s.
Mr. Kunhalikutty said here that it was not a matter that could be ended by a correction. “The CPI(M) should seriously introspect. It should never have happened from a party that is a constituent of the Indian National Developmental Inclusive Alliance (INDIA),” he said.
Muslim League leader M.K. Muneer said here that the CPI(M) and the Sangh Parivar shared the same views towards the Muslim community. He said the CPI(M) should make clear what action it would take in the matter.
