CPI(M) pushes back against UDF govt’s decision to institute police probe against Pinarayi Vijayan, kin based on ED’s request
The Communist Party of India (Marxist) criticised the United Democratic Front government in Kerala for ordering a police investigation into Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan and his family following a request from the Enforcement Directorate. Party leader M.A. Baby said the Congress’s position in the state differs sharply from the CPI(M)’s national stance against what it calls the centre’s misuse of investigative agencies against non‑BJP parties.
