The CPI Monday alleged that the misuse of Central agencies like CBI by the NDA government and an equally "undemocratic" response by West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee have created a civil war-like situation in the country.
"The autocratic misuse of central agencies like CBI, ED and IT departments by the Narendra Modi-led NDA government at the Centre to target political opponents and the equally undemocratic response by Mamata Banerjee-led West Bengal government to protect Saradha Chit Fund Scam accused have put the country in a civil war-like situation," the CPI said.
"It is the responsibility of the Centre to resolve the logjam and save the democratic fabric of the country," Communist Party of India general secretary S Sudhakar Reddy said in a statement.
The alleged Saradha scam is a "very big scam" and a transparent and independent investigation is necessary to bring the guilty to book, he said.
The Centre should call for an all party meeting to redefine centre-state relations, the CPI leader said.
