Left independent MLA P V Anvar on Friday denied any intentional statements about leaving the LDF, calling such remarks a 'slip of the tongue'.
Anvar's clarification followed Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan's claims that the MLA from Nilambur had made his intention to leave the Left front known. Anvar insisted his previous comments were misinterpreted.
He questioned why the CM ignored his allegations against ADGP M R Ajithkumar and political secretary P Sasi. Anvar plans to seek a court-appointed police team to investigate his claims, as well as a reinvestigation into around 180 gold smuggling cases in Kerala, which he alleges were mishandled.
Accusing Vijayan of misleading the public and calling him a 'cheat', Anvar demanded the CM give up the Home department charge.
