Threats of communalism and measures to counter the menace were discussed during the day-long state committee meet of the party's Bengal unit which was attended by CPI(M) general secretary Sitaram Yechury.
"We have discussed the threats posed by communalism to the integrity of our country and how the Modi government is pursuing the politics of communal polarisation by pampering the majority. This majority communalism is feeding the minority fundamentalism, thus endangering the basic idea of our country," a senior CPI(M) state committee member told PTI.
"We have been asked to reach out to the masses and apprise them of the pitfalls of communal politics. We have to raise awareness and organise people's resistance against this tendency," he said.
