THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: The Enforcement Directorate is trying to become an alternate government, CPM central committee member MV Govindan said. Let the investigation of central agencies continue. But every other day a piece of news against the government is being created, he said.

Govindan alleged that CBI is trying to weaken the government. He further asked what happened after CBI took over the Maradu case. These controversies should have ended with the statement of a Customs official that nobody called from the chief minister's office. The investigation teams are attempting to create evidence, Govindan alleged.
