An off-the-cuff remark by Indian Union Muslim League (IUML) national organising secretary E.T. Mohammed Basheer, MP, about the party participating in the CPI(M)’s Palestine solidarity rally to be held in Kozhikode on November 11 sparked a stream of speculations over possible political realignments on Thursday.
Talking to mediapersons here, Mr. Basheer hinted that the IUML would not shy away from attending the CPI(M)’s Palestine rally if invited. He said that it was time that everyone stood together for the cause of Palestine.
The IUML had stayed away from the CPI(M) rally against the Uniform Civil Code held in July this year, when the Samastha Kerala Jamiyyathul Ulama, the biggest body of traditional Islamic clerics in the State, happily accepted the CPI(M) invite.
