Raid of office a violation of freedom of expression and political rights: SDPI
Kozhikode: The unnecessary raids conducted in the offices of the Social Democratic Party of India are a violation of the right for independent political activity as well as the freedom of expression acknowledged by the Indian Constitution, said the state leaders of the SDPI in a press conference.
The SDPI is a political party formed as per the rules of the Indian Election Commission. IT has played a part in the democratic elections held in various states and emerged successful in the last one year. This has led to the opposition of the traditional political leadership.
The raid shows the high-caste conspiracy that the low castes should only vote for political parties and should not form their own political parties. The Dalit and backward classes of the society who were subject to discrimination and rejection from the mainstream political parties looked forward to the SDPI with hope. The issues taken up by the party in its Jana Kerala Yathra were issues that no other party had taken up. Efforts are on to destroy the popular confidence gained, using the police. The SDPI has the mental strength to defend this mysterious move. Conducting raids in the houses of non-Muslim party members of the SDPI in untimely hours is a part of political conspiracy. The Kerala police have come down as the volunteers of the CPI (M). The police-political conspiracy which insults the literate Kerala should come to an end, the leaders demanded.
National chairman of the Popular Front of India EM Abdul Rahman condemned the discriminatory and anti-democratic moves of the Kerala police towards the PFI. Raiding the state office of the organisation in the name of a local incident is a violation of the democratic rights, he said. He expressed doubt that the moves were a part of dirt politics to create communal divide among the people and utilize it in the up-coming panchayat elections.
The SDPI organized a one-day fast in front of the state secretariat under the leadership of MK Manoj Kumar to protest against the denial of the right to political activity. Unnecessarily raiding the offices of the party was a threat to democracy, said Manoj Kumar.
The district leaders of the SDPI in Malappuram expressed their protest to District Superintendent of Police K Sethuraman in the widespread raid conducted in the offices of the party in the district. The leaders visited the SP and expressed their discontent
