Communist Party of India (Marxist) (CPI(M)) district secretary KK Ragesh said the United Democratic Front (UDF) and Congress should not try to blame the CPI(M) for their “inability” to find candidates for the local body elections.
He told a press conference that the reality was that the Congress did not contest in Malappattam and Anthoor because it lacked candidates there. He alleged that the UDF, with the support of sections of the media, had criticized the CPI(M) to cover up its organizational weakness.
