The CPI(M) on Tuesday said all donations and funds it received during the Lok Sabha polls have been reflected in its statement to the Election Commission of India and dismissed reports of the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) donating Rs 25 crore to Left parties as "concocted".

It said the allegation that the party has hidden its poll expenditure was "false".

In a statement, the CPI(M) said, "Reports have appeared in a section of the media regarding election funding and expenditure of the CPI(M). This is nothing but disinformation designed to discredit the party."
The CPI(M) said, "The statement of accounts has given the full expenditure incurred by the Party during the elections. The "amount" stated in the media report as party expenditure is concocted. All this can be verified when the statement of accounts will be put up on the official website of the Election Commission of India."
