The article details accusations made by BJP state president K Surendran against the Communist Party of India (Marxist) (CPM) in Kerala, specifically regarding the alleged protection of former Kannur panchayat president P P Divya. Surendran claims that the CPM is shielding Divya from facing consequences for alleged corrupt practices, suggesting that an investigation into the matter would ultimately implicate the party secretary, M V Govindan. He asserts that the party has benefited from Divya's alleged corruption, highlighting the alleged complicity of the CPM in the matter.
The severity of the accusations is further emphasized by Surendran's demand for a lookout notice to be issued against Divya, suggesting a potential flight risk and indicating the seriousness of the alleged wrongdoing. This move reflects the BJP's intent to escalate pressure on the CPM and force accountability for the alleged corruption.
Furthermore, the article addresses a separate incident involving CPM leader N N Krishnadas's remarks against the media. Surendran criticizes Krishnadas's statements, deeming them inappropriate for a civilized society. He calls for an apology and rectification of the derogatory remarks, adding another layer of tension to the already strained relationship between the BJP and the CPM.
