The country should recognise the role of the Congress in the growth of democracy, writer and activist Sara Joseph has said.
She was inaugurating a meeting of cultural activists organised by the Gandhi-Nehru Cultural and Research Library in Thrissur recently. The get-together was organised against the “fascist rule of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)-led Sangh Parivar and the totalitarian style of ruling by the Communist government in Kerala.”
“Both types of fascism need to be opposed. The BJP, which is trying to demolish the core values of the Indian Constitution, should be defeated. The Left Democratic Front (LDF) in the State does not recognise democracy. Instead of opposing each other, the Congress and the Left should unitedly fight against the larger threat faced by the country,” she said.
