‘Many Kerala outfits have ISI links’
The minister of state for home, Mr Mullappally Ramachandran, said here on Sunday that many outfits in Kerala had links with the Inter Services Intelligence of Pakistan. Talking to mediapersons, the minister said that many of these agencies were being kept under a close watch by the Centre.
He, however, said that Left extremist organisations still did not have much influence in the state. “Maoism is not strong here,” he added.
The minister said that there was no need to deploy the Army to tackle the Maoists. “Paramilitary forces and police are taking strong action,” he said.
