PM Should Act Forthwith
Press Statement
The Polit Bureau of the Communist Party of India (Marxist) has issued the
following statement:
PM Should Act Forthwith
The intervention by the Minister of External Affairs, in inappropriately
facilitating the travel of a person with serious criminal charges connected
with the IPL controversy, is completely unacceptable.
In the background of the loud campaigns made on completion of the first year of this BJP government, the Prime Minister must redeem the assertions that he has made to the Indian people on the grounds that his government is "corruption free" and "accountable".

The accountability of the Prime
Minister and the government on this score can be enforced only when the
Prime Minister, whose prerogative it is under our constitutional scheme of
things to decide on the composition of the Union Cabinet, announces the
necessary action on this score. There must be a thorough enquiry into all
the allegations that have surfaced regarding this affair and consequent
punishment under the law must be taken promptly against all concerned.
