New Delhi: CPI(M) general secretary M A Baby on Saturday slammed Congress leader Rahul Gandhi over his remarks on Pinarayi Vijayan at the INDIA bloc meeting and said the LoP has been urged only to stop being the "facilitator for the ED and Modi government".
Gandhi earlier said he "cannot hug" former Kerala chief minister Vijayan as he has an ongoing political fight with him. He was speaking at the June 8 meeting after Left leaders objected to remarks made by him and other top Congress leaders before the assembly polls in the southern state -- alleging tacit understanding between the then-ruling CPI(M) and the BJP.
