Press Statement

The Polit Bureau of the Communist Party of India (Marxist) has issued the following statement:

The Polit Bureau of the Communist Party of India (Marxist) strongly condemns the dastardly attack on the house of the state secretary of Karnataka State Committee of the CPI(M), Comrade V.J.K. Nair. At around 10.00 last night, about 25 RSS/BJP workers barged into his house carrying swords, daggers and lathis. They were enquiring about VJK Nair, who was not present in his house at that time. Not finding him in the house, they hurled abuses against his wife, threatened her and destroyed the TV, fridge, furniture and other household articles. They also took away his laptop computer.

This incident once again exposes the ugly face of the RSS/BJP and the practice of its politics.

The Polit Bureau of the CPI(M) demands that the BJP-RSS workers involved in the incident should be arrested immediately.
