KOZHIKODE: CPM Kozhikode district secretariat has demanded action after the welcome song of the school arts festival stoked a controversy. A statement from the district secretariat said the presentation of one in Muslim garb to portray a terrorist in the welcome song is against the stand of the Pinarayi government and the LDF.
Terrorism are not an issue related to any group and the district secretariat demands that action be taken after examining how such a picture surfaced.
The Muslim League and allied outfits had objected the portrayal of a Muslim dressed as a terrorist in the welcome song. Soon after this, Minister Mohammad Riyas had demanded to examine the interest of those who prepared the welcome song and to investigate the Sangh Parivar relationship. He said the efforts to portray one community as terrorists would not be encouraged.
