IUML leader recalls patriotic legacy of the party and its contribution to nationhood
The Taliban’s take over of Afghanistan seemed to have prompted the Indian Union Muslim League (IUML) and the Communist Party of India (Marxist) [CPI(M)] to trade barbs about the question of nationality and religion. CPI(M) Polit Bureau member M.A. Baby appeared to have provoked the purported exchange. In an FB post, the CPI(M) leader said that Taliban victory increases the possibility of radical Islam becoming a magnet for more citizens, including Keralites. He said the unwelcome trend would catalyse majoritarian politics.More Related News
