CPM stand vindicated: Pinarayi Vijayan
KASARGOD: CPM politburo member Pinarayi Vijayan said that the deposition of former prison DGP Alexander Jacob before the Solar Commission vindicates the stand of the CPM that top UDF leaders are involved in the case.
Speaking to reporters on the sidelines of the Navakerala Yatra here on Saturday, he added that former DGP might not have given names because of his gentlemanliness.
Mr Vijayan reiterated that he would not respond to the latest development in the Lavalin case as the party had responded on the same several times.
He lambasted Chief Minister Oomman Chandy’s comment that the CPM was against development.
“It’s a wrong allegation that we resisted computerisation. Those period was such that there was wide spread apprehension that computerisation would affect jobs,” he said. He evaded the question of who will be LDF's chief minister candidate.
