The leaders of the Communist Party of Bangladesh (CPB) yesterday alleged that some political parties, still holding Pakistani ideologies, were spreading communalism and creating anarchy in the country opposing the war crimes trial.

This section has been enforcing different activities to destroy the bases of the spirit of secularism, democracy, and liberation, they said at a two-day central committee meeting, which began at the party's office yesterday, says a press release.

They urged the left leaning parties to get united for creating an alternative stream of politics against the two major parties to rule the country for the salvation of the people.

CPB president Manzurul Ahsan Khan chaired the meeting while general secretary Mujahidul Islam Selim placed the central report.
