In a setback to the CPI-M, the Indian Union Muslim League (IUML) on Sunday decided to reject the CPI-M’s invitation to participate in the seminar organized by the Left party against the Uniform Civil Code (UCC).
At a leadership meeting held on Sunday at Panakkad in Mapappuram, the Muslim League has decided not to attend the seminar organized by the CPI-M against the Uniform Civil Code (UCC) on 15 July in Kozhikode.
Speaking to media persons at Panakkad, after the leadership meeting, Muslim League state President Sadikhali Shihab Thangal said that Muslim League is a major constituent in the Congress-led United Democratic Front (UDF). But CPI-M invited only the Muslim League, ignoring other parties of the UDF. Muslim cannot participate at the seminar, he said

The Muslim League leaders said that only the Congress can raise voice against UCC in the Parliament. They, however, said they have no problem for other Muslim associations like Samastha Kerala Jem-Iyyathul Ulama, the body of Sunni scholars, attending the CPI-M’s seminar to be held on 15 July in Kozhikode.
