‘CPI did not seek guidance or permission from anyone’
The Communist Party of India (CPI) does not have to seek guidance or permission from anyone to make its own decisions and no such thing
The Communist Party of India (CPI) does not have to seek guidance or permission from anyone to make its own decisions and no such thing happened, the party said in a resolution passed at the end of its two-day executive committee meeting held in Coimbatore, in an apparent reference to the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) president M.K. Stalin’s recent remarks that the former alliance partners of the DMK had consulted him before extending support to the Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK).
The political stance of the CPI is to safeguard the interests of the working people, defeat communal-fascist forces, and uphold social justice. The TVK emerged as the single largest party in the Assembly elections in the State, securing the highest number of votes and seats from the people. However, the Governor, instead of inviting the TVK to form the government, tried to indirectly bring BJP rule, the CPI alleged.
The CPI State Executive Committee decided to extend external support to TVK for forming the government, in order to prevent such outcomes, the party said in its resolutions. If the TVK government engaged in actions contrary to its political stance, the CPI will join the affected people in protest. The CPI will organise protests at all the district head quarters of the State on June 29 against the “anti-people” policies of the Central government and demanding complete waiver of agriculture loans.
The Union Government must withdraw the four labour codes and the Tamil Nadu government must declare that the labour codes cannot be implemented in the State, it added.
