‘Party has admitted to leakage of its own votes in Thripunithura’
K. Babu, the Congress MLA from Thripunithura, has demanded an apology from the Communist Party of India (Marxist) [CPI(M)] for the alleged smear campaign against him now that the party itself has admitted to the leakage of its own votes as the reason for its defeat in the constituency.
Addressing a press conference here on Wednesday, Mr. Babu demanded to make public the CPI(M) inquiry commission report into the defeat in Thripunithura.
He said that he was being haunted by CPI(M) leaders since the election result was out on May 2. “Their main allegation was that I won on BJP votes. I was being relentlessly humiliated by the party leaders, including the Chief Minister and the CPI(M) State Secretary, by publicly airing that allegation,” Mr. Babu said.
