Finally

someone points out some facts about the so called secular parties here!
There is a secret in this politics of winks. What the CPM does is always secular: never mind its history of fomenting and ignoring—in a cyclical fashion—Muslim communalism in Kerala. Is there any difference between the adulterated communalism of the CPM and the unadulterated communalism of the BJP?

Communal politics is what it is, call it by whatever name you want. It does not matter whether the religion in question is Islam or Hinduism or any other for that matter. But in India’s twisted politics, there is a difference: Minority communalism is not communalism. This is the interpretation of the Left parties and those of liberals who believe that minorities have got a raw deal in the republic.
