Attack on Kerala CPI(M) Rebel Deepens Party Rift

There was a fire at a shrimp farm owned by a former member of the CPI(M) party in Kerala.

The man, T. Purushothaman, supports a rebel leader in the party.

The fire destroyed equipment and he thinks someone tried to poison the shrimp.

This is the second attack on him.

The first was during the elections when his house and car were damaged.

Five party workers were arrested for that.

Purushothaman blames a former party leader for the latest attack.

The CPI(M) party is already having problems after losing many seats in the recent elections.

This new attack is making their problems worse.
