The Communist Party of India (Marxist) [CPI(M)] State committee has taken to task party leader and former legislator George M. Thomas for appearing to suggest that Muslims deliberately enticed members of other religions into marriage by pursuing an alleged policy of waging jihad through love to encourage conversion to Islam.
The CPI(M) had debunked the “love jihad” theory as a Sangh Parivar construct to alienate and disenfranchise Indian Muslims and portray them as the other.
