Indian Union Muslim League (IUML) State president Panakkad Sadiqali Shihab Thangal on Monday dismissed reports that his party would leave the United Democratic Front (UDF) and join the Communist Party of India-Marxist [CPI(M)]- led Left Democratic Front (LDF).
Inaugurating a camp of the district IUML council at Sulthan Bathery in Wayanad district on Monday, the Thangal reiterated his party’s unwavering commitment to the UDF. There was no question of deviating from the IUML’s responsibility to strengthen the Congress-led UDF in the State, the Thangal said.
His response came at a time when the LDF is allegedly trying to woo the key constituent of the UDF into its fold.
