Muraleedharan pointed out that Sreedharan has his own publishing unit Pranavam and an RSS run printing house Kurushekhtra and so bringing out a book through KPPC’s unit by passing these publications was with an eye on business. Chennithala had said the organisation did not hold sectarian political views when it came to promoting writers belonging to other political parties. PTI
