A day after the opposition UDF faced flak for not raising the row involving Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan's daughter in the Assembly, the CPI(M) on Friday took a dig at the front saying they did not take up the controversy fearful of the reply by the CM in the House.

The Marxist party also claimed that Vijayan's daughter T Veena had not done anything illegal and all the dealings of her IT firm were transparent, PTI reported.
