“The fact is that in Kerala, it is the CPI(M) and other constituents of the Left Democratic Front (LDF) which have been at the receiving end of the murderous attacks mounted by the RSS and its outfits. Such attacks increase whenever the LDF is in government in the state,” it said.
The Politburo stated that the current round of attacks on its cadre began with the murder of CPI(M) worker Ravindranath while he was participating in a procession following the victory of Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan from Dharmadom constituency in the state Assembly elections held last year.
The CPI(M) has claimed that as many as six of its workers have been killed and scores of others injured during the short span the Pinarayi Vijayan government has been in office.
The Politburo calls upon the RSS/BJP to immediate stop such violent attacks, the statement said.
