Uniform Civil Code: RSS calls for consensus

KOZHIKODE: The two-day RSS state-level leaders’ meet which concluded here on Sunday called for consensus in implementing Uniform Civil Code, protest against oppressive CPM rule and launching a Green Kerala campaign.

Addressing  a press conference on Sunday RSS state general secretary P Gopalankutti said that  Union government is bound to implement Uniform Civil Code as it is enshrined in the constitution. “But we are in the opinion that before implementation there should be discussions with all the communities to rule out our doubts and fears,” he added.

Explaining the decisions made in the meet Mr Gopalankutti said that a resolution has been passed against the politics of violence followed by CPM. The detailed resolution against the atrocities of CPM said that after the elections, CPM has unleashed brutal violence across the state leaving hundreds of persons including women and children injured.

Apart from RSS-BJP workers, leaders and workers of other political parties also were brutally attacked, the resolution said.  Supporters of other political parties are unable to carry out party work even in the native village of chief minister Pinarayi Vijayan, resolution said. The attitude is evident in the incident in which two dalit women were attacked in constituency of CPM state secretary Kodiyeri Balakrishnan.

RSS also urged workers to resist such undemocratic and oppressive political attitude of CPM denying basic human rights. Another resolution passed by the meeting urged workers to strive to convert the state into a green state by participating in farming and afforestation initiatives.
