The Polit Bureau of the Communist Party of India (Marxist) has issued the following statement:
Remove Hardeep Singh Puri from Union Cabinet
Extremely repulsive and abhorrent content of the Epstein Files is unravelling on a daily basis. Despite the attempts of the US Department of Justice and the Trump Administration at a grand cover-up, the facts are coming out. There is no iota of doubt about the aggressive criminal nature and impunity of the network involving the power elite comprising politicians, financial overlords, tech giants and celebrities, who were part of this criminal network of which Epstein was the chief facilitator. Concrete legal and punitive actions have been initiated in several countries. Prince Andrew has been stripped of his titles and arrested in the UK. Several others have been forced to resign from their positions in their respective nations.
Despite clear evidence of the involvement of Hardeep Singh Puri, Minister for Petroleum & Natural Gas, and industrialist Anil Ambani, there is no attempt by the Union government to force an explanation and ensure accountability. The Union government has disallowed any discussion on the Epstein Files on the floor of Parliament. In the face of available evidence, Hardeep Singh Puri has been caught lying in his own press conference. Yet, instead of being sacked, Hardeep Singh Puri is being protected by all devious means.
In these circumstances, the Polit Bureau categorically demands that the Prime Minister remove Hardeep Singh Puri from the Union Cabinet to address the national embarrassment and shame.
