UDF raps Kerala govt in assembly, demands tabling of DGP report on Ajithkumar

PTI Thiruvananthapuram: The Congress-led opposition UDF on Wednesday vehemently attacked the left government in the state, accusing it of protecting ADGP Ajithkumar, who had held discussions with RSS leaders. It scathingly asked the government if his transfer from the law and order wing was a punishment or promotion. They demanded tabling of the DGP report on this issue, too. Despite evidence for several allegations against him, the officer was being protected by Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan and this is a result of the understanding he had with the RSS leadership, the UDF alleged in the assembly. The UDF challenged the CPI (M)-led government to table the report submitted by the state DGP Shaik Darvesh Saheb, in the house. The report said to have findings against Ajithkumar. The LDF government and the CM came under attack in the h o u s e during a discuss i o n on an adjournment motion moved by UDF legislator N Samsudheen (IUML) over the controversial meetings between the ADGP and a few senior RSS leaders. E a r - lier in the day, the CM agreed to take up the motion for discussion, but the speaker A N Shamseer later informed the house that Vijayan could not participate in it as a doctor advised him to take complete voice rest due to severe throat infection. "If you have courage and nothing to hide, table the DGP's report in the House," Samsudheen urged the government. Raising a copy of the transfer order of Ajith kumar from the law and order, the MLA said there was no reference to any probe or action against the official in that. "Is this a promotion or transfer?" the opposition legislator asked. Amidst his vehement attack against the CM, Samsudheen also raised the raging row over CM Vijayan's alleged remarks against Malappuram district and gold smuggling
