MALAPPURAM: Samastha state president Jifri Muthukoya Thangal and general secretary Ali Kutty Musliyar have announced their resignation from the advisory committee of Coordination of Islamic Colleges (CIC). The Samastha leaders announced their resignations alleging that no discussions are taking place on matters related to the CIC.

The CIC and Samastha had differences between them even after Hakeem Faizy Adrisseri tendered his resignation. The other day, Sadiq Ali Thangal had appointed Habibullah Faizi as the General Secretary of CIC. The Samastha leaders were unhappy that the decision was taken without discussing it with them. This eventually led to their resignation.
