Left not running inter-faith marriage bureaus: Kerala CM

Kerala CM Pinarayi Vijayan ridicules comments made by Islamic scholar Nazar Faizi Koodathayi, who alleged that CPM, DYFI, and SFI are brainwashing Muslim women to marry non-Muslims. Vijayan denies the existence of intercaste marriage bureaus and asserts that if a couple decides to marry regardless of their faith, no one can stop them. He acknowledges the opposition to such unions but emphasizes that it hasn’t prevented such marriages. Koodathayi claims that the CPM and its youth organizations support the abduction of Muslim women for interfaith marriages, urging Mahallu committees to protect the identity of Muslim women.
