CPI(M)  Polit Bureau has issued the following statement on April 20

THE front page lead story in the Malayala Manorma that the central leadership of CPI(M) has rejected the explanation given on the Sprinkler issue from Kerala is as false as it is baseless. It is unfortunate that a reputed daily is spreading false news.

At a time when the Kerala LDF government has taken exemplary lead in the fight against Covid-19, along with providing the marginalised sections of societies including guest workers’ safety and succour, such a false story is motivated to denigrate the excellent work done by the government and the people of Kerala in fighting the pandemic.

The Polit Bureau of the CPI(M) is confident that the people of Kerala will not pay any heed to such fabricated reports.
