The Communist Party of India (Marxist) [CPI(M)] has perceived that the Central Government’s “financial embargo” on Kerala has created political fissures in the Congress-led United Democratic Front (UDF) Opposition.
Speaking to journalists in Thiruvananthapuram on December 15 (Friday), CPI(M) State secretary M.V. Govindan said Indian Union Muslim League (IUML) leader P.K. Kunhalikutty had evinced interest to cooperate with the ruling Left Democratic Front (LDF) to wrest what the Centre financially owed Kerala and also fight against the Bharatiya Janata Party-led Union Government’s “economically stifling trespasses” on fiscal federalism.
