Kodiyeri slams Enforcement Directorate for targeting Isaac
Communist Party of India (Marxist) [CPI(M)] State secretary Kodiyeri Balakrishnan has said the party will legally and politically resist the Central government's move to target the Left Democratic Front (LDF) government using the Enforcement Directorate (ED).
After chairing a CPI(M) State secretariat meeting here on Friday, Mr. Balakrishnan said: “Former Finance T.M. Thomas Isaac and the Kerala Infrastructure Investment Fund Board (KIIFB) are the latest Centre’s targets. It wants to bring KIIFB-funded development in the State to a halt in the run-up to the Lok Sabha election. It wants to deny Kerala’s outside ‘‘budget borrowings’‘ to drive its welfare-oriented infrastructure development schemes.”
