They probably are. When Muthoot faced workers union strike due to low salary, these unions are mostly CPM allied or CPM own union. There was no such issue in Manappuram when both have similar pay.
Also VP Nandakumar is ezhava caste, which is the main vote bank of CPM in Kerala.
Anyway, ED comes under Central government, and it could be that CG has an issue with Manappurams favouring CPM and ignoring BJP.
