The Indian Union Muslim League (IUML) leadership has decided to put a lid on the controversy over its former legislator and senior leader K.N.A. Khader participating in ‘Sneha Bodhi’, an event organised by RSS-affiliated Kesari weekly, in Kozhikode.
Sources said the party leadership, which had already sought an explanation from Mr. Khader, would let him off with a caution. His attendance in the programme on Tuesday sparked off a controversy with senior leader M.K. Muneer, MLA, publicly denouncing his act.
However, IUML State president Panakkad Sadiqali Shihab Thangal had stated that party members should exercise vigil while attending such programmes just because someone invited them.
