Samastha has asked for an explanation of the reasons behind the remarks made during a speech delivered at a Samastha local-level convention at Edavannappara.
Ummer Faizy allegedly questioned Thangal's credentials and authority as Qazi at a Samastha convention at Edavannappara last week.
The IUML-Samastha rift widened after Ummer Faizy Mukkam, a known CPM supporter, questioned IUML leader Panakkad Sadiq Ali Shihab Thangal’s credentials and authority as Qazi.
The situation escalated when Ummer Faizy Mukkam and a pro-CPM leader within the organisation, issued sharp criticisms aimed at Panakkad Sayyid Sadiq Ali Shihab Thangal.
There is a stark irony in CPM’s present statements accusing Jamaat-e-Islami as a terror organisation, as the party had maintained political ties with it for a long time.
It also accused the CM of attempting to divide communities for political gain.
Anvar had said that in 2011 then party secretary Veliyam Bhargavan accepted Rs 25 lakh from the League and fielded a weak candidate for the CPI.
The opposition accused IUML of having a covert alliance with the RSS.
He was responding to criticism from IUML, Cong over his earlier call for Panakkad Sadiqali Shihab Thangal to issue a 'fatwa' against gold smuggling by Muslims.
Anvar is expected to launch his new political party, the Democratic Movement of Kerala, on Sunday.
