Criticising the SFI, senior BJP leader Prakash Javadekar likened the student outfit of the CPI(M) to the banned Popular Front of India. “SFI is PFI of CPM,” he said on X. Strongly reacting, the SFI said it would take legal action over the baseless allegations. Earlier, the Kerala Governor alleged that SFI and PFI were working together.
