Party state secretary M V Govindan termed the charges baseless, warns of legal actions; BJP demands probe by central agencies

- EXPRESS NEWS SERVICE @ T'Puram

A DAY after a leaked complaint from a Chennai-based businessman to the CPM Politburo alleging financial wrong-doings by party leaders triggered a row, the party leadership has come forward to politically counter the same. While the CPM leadership termed the allegations baseless and warned of legal actions, both Opposition Congress and the BJP targeted the Left leadership in this regard.

Responding to the media in Delhi, CPM state secretary M V Govindan termed the allegations baseless. Govindan said he doesn't want to respond to such absurd matters. The leader said whether a case should be filed would be decided later. He, however, ignored repeated questions on whether leaking of the complaint was related to any factional issues within the party.

Senior leader and party secretariat member Thomas Isaac, who has been named in the letter, too termed the allegations baseless. He also warned of legal actions in the matter.

The Many Shades Of Patriotism

OME years ago, I was briefly in the Netherlands. The taxi from the airport was a faded green Mercedes. The driver, in a suit and skull cap, was a burly man with a white, flowing beard. He turned out to be a Pakistani and hummed a Dilip Kumar-Vyjayanthimala song: \"Teri husn ki kya tareef karun.\" He said he was happy—happier than he had ever been in Pakistan.
