The Communist Party of India (CPI) State executive on Monday reportedly attempted to walk a tight rope between registering strong disapproval of the government’s handling of K-Rail (SilverLine) protesters and cautioning society about the Congress-Bharathiya Janata Party (BJP) bid to sabotage the Left Democratic Front (LDF) administration’s ambitious development agenda.
CPI State secretary Kanam Rajendran chaired the closed-door meeting. By some accounts, the party took strong exception to how the police dealt with anti-SilverLine protesters.
