Communalism through communism!

Counter to what Indian communists might claim, they are notoriously involved in flagging, inciting and destablizing communal harmony. Recent electoral sweeps in Kerala by the ultra-communists (aka communalists) shows how the Muslim card is played for political gains:

The Left catchline in Muslim pockets was that the Congress-IUML was "breaking bread with imperialists and fascists who were waging war on Islam". The LDF also had the backing of the National Democratic Front, an ultra-religious Muslim outfit.

Everyone chases the Muslim vote, but no one does anything for the community. Why shouldn’t the community keep the vote and act for itself?
