Taking a cautious stance on the Centre’s decision to ban the Popular Front of India (PFI), Communist Party of India (Marxist) [CPI (M)] State Secretary M.V. Govindan has said that no ideology can be eliminated by a ban. The Central Committee of the CPI(M) will clarify the party’s stand on banning the PFI, he told media here on Wednesday.
He reiterated the party’s stance that the ban would not solve any problem, and clarified that banning only one organisation against communalism will not help.
