Will submit an explanation before High Court, says CPI(M) Idukki district secretary

The Communist Party of India (Marxist) [CPI(M)] did not conduct any construction work after the District Collector issued a stop memo on the construction of the area committee office building of the party at Santhanpara in Idukki, CPI(M) district secretary C.V. Varghese has said.

Responding to the High Court initiating a suo motu contempt of court case against him on Thursday, Mr. Varghese said at Thodupuzha that an explanation would be submitted before the court soon.

“No construction work was done after receiving the court order and the Revenue department issuing a stop memo. The party never violated the court order. We are ready to face any probe,” said Mr. Varghese.
