THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: CPM state secretary Kodiyeri Balakrishnan on Saturday lashed out against KPCC president Mullappally Ramachandran over the latter's remark that the communist members had betrayed the Indian freedom struggle. According to Kodiyeri, Mullappally's remarks cannot be considered as mere stupidity committed by someone who is ignorant about history.
Kodiyeri took it to Facebook to criticize the KPCC president. 'KPCC president Mullappally Ramachandran had remarked that the communist members had betrayed the Indian freedom struggle. This cannot be seen as mere words coming from a person who is ignorant about history. Those words from Mullappally indicates that he is suffering from some sort of mental disorder. Those who have read at least the initial chapters of Indian history must be aware of the significant contribution made by the communist organisation in bringing an end to the British rule in India,' his post read.
