IUML chalks out plan to thwart CPI(M) bid to score over anti-UCC protest

The Indian Union Muslim League (IUML) seems to be chalking out its own action plan to counter the proposed Uniform Civil Code (UCC) and to outsmart the  Communist Party of India (Marxist)‘s call for an alliance of secular and democratic forces to resist its implementation.

The IUML leadership perceives that the CPI(M) is attempting to woo the Muslim minorities towards it by trying to stoke up the sentiments of community organisations. The party is planning to organise seminars in Kochi and Kozhikode ahead of the CPI(M)’s move to hold similar events. A meeting of minority organisations too is planned in Kozhikode on Tuesday to discuss the issue.

Speaking to mediapersons on Tuesday, State general secretary P.M.A. Salam and M.K. Muneer, MLA, clarified the party’s stance on the issue and criticised the CPI(M)’s position on the UCC.
