Press Statement

 

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

 

 

On Adityanath as Chief Minister of UP

 

 

The appointment of Yogi Adityanath as the Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh is
a shocking decision by the BJP. This choice by the RSS, executed by its
political arm, the BJP, is a deliberate move which bodes ill for the state.

 

Adityanath is a known Hindutva fanatic who has a record of inciting communal
violence, having a number of criminal cases pending against him. He also
espouses extremely casteist views.

 

The selection of Adityanath has once again exposed the oft-repeated claim of
Prime Minister Narendra Modi that development will be its main agenda. It
makes a mockery of his own slogan of "sabka saath, sabka vikas".

 

In the face of this situation, the CPI (M) calls upon all democratic and
secular forces in Uttar Pradesh to unitedly work to ensure the safeguarding
of communal amity and the protection of the rights of all sections of the
people in accordance with the constitutional guarantees.
