The LDF government has been trying to silence the media to hide its corruption, senior Congress leader Ramesh Chennithala has alleged.
Addressing mediapersons here on Friday, he said the government had been slapping fake cases against mediapersons frequently.
“How journalists can function freely if conspiracy charges have been registered for reporting events. The threat of freedom of expression is the threat against democracy. The CPI(M) is bulldozing democracy. Huge conspiracy has been going on in the CPI(M) to hunt down the mediapersons,” Mr. Chennithala alleged.
