Kozhikode:The IUML has made it clear that the party has no intention at present to absorb CPI(M) MP A P Abdullakutty, suspended for praising the development model pursued by Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi, despite his
recent 'League-friendly' remarks.
'The League considers it as valid credit (Abdullakutty's remarks), but we are not thinking of absorbing him into our
party,' IUML state general secretary P K Kunhalikutty said, addressing a public meeting organised as part of the golden jubilee celebrations of IUML student-wing MSF here last night.
Attending the MSF meet on Friday, Abdullakutty said that the League was a mainstream secular party of the minority
community. 'The role played by the League in checking the onslaught of terrorism is simply great,' Abdullakutty had said, adding that IUML was a party committed to defending secularism,
democracy and socialism.
However, IUML leader Panakkad Syed Mohammadali Shihab Thangal, who appealed to Muslim community at the meeting to
come forward to 'guard their esteem' and preserve communal harmony, did not react to the issue.
