The Indian Union Muslim League (IUML) leadership is reported to have taken a serious view of its former legislator K.N.A. Khader participating in an event organised by a Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh-affiliate organisation in Kozhikode.
According to sources, Mr. Khader, also a national executive committee member of the party, had not taken official permission to attend the function. P.K. Kunhalikutty, IUML general secretary and MLA, told the media on Wednesday that he had seen a video of the event. “The party will examine the issue,” he said.
M.K. Muneer, senior IUML leader and MLA, said Mr. Khader’s presence at the event was against the party’s stated principles. The IUML would listen to what Mr. Khader had to say. Dr. Muneer clarified that the party’s high-power committee had no knowledge about his participation.
