P. Sarin apologises for calling CJP a conspiracy during Delhi protest

CPM leader P. Sarin apologised for his remarks about CJP after speaking at an opposition protest in New Delhi.

The protest called for Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar to resign.

Sarin had described CJP as a conspiracy and questioned why it was not taking part in the march.

He said his comments were a serious slip of the tongue and did not represent his party’s ideology or political programme.

Sarin said he had meant to express a personal view that CJP should have joined the protest.

He said CJP should not be treated irresponsibly in political debate, calling it a youth movement watched around the world.

His apology followed controversy over the remarks, and he thanked party colleagues who pointed out his mistake.
