CPI(M) Central Committee meet on Kerala affairs

The committee to hold meeting on July 11, 12

Polit Bureau discusses organisational issues in Kerala


NEW DELHI: The Polit Bureau of the Communist Party of India (Marxist) has decided to convene a two-day meeting of the Central Committee from July 11 to consider its proposals regarding party affairs in Kerala. The Polit Bureau has devoted two days exclusively to resolve the situation arising out of differences between Chief Minister V.S. Achuthanandan and party State Secretary Pinarayi Vijayan.

In an interaction with newspersons, Polit Bureau member Sitaram Yechury reiterated a Polit Bureau statement in this regard but did not spell out the proposals to be put up for the Central Committee’s consideration. “The Polit Bureau of the CPI(M) discussed the organisational issues related to the Kerala State unit of the party. The Polit Bureau decided to convene a meeting of the Central Committee on July 11-12 to consider the proposals of the Polit Bureau regarding the party affairs in Kerala,” the statement said.

The meeting was attended among others by CPI(M) general secretary Prakash Karat, S. Ramachandran Pillai, Biman Bose, M.K. Pandhe, Mr. Achuthanandan and Mr. Vijayan, among others. Both Mr. Achuthanandan and Mr. Vijayan had earlier been suspended from the Polit Bureau over the Kerala issue but their suspensions were later revoked. However, the disciplinary action against the two senior leaders had failed to douse factionalism in the Kerala State unit of the party.

“The public controversies that erupted in the LDF on the eve of the Lok Sabha polls conveyed an impression in the minds of the people that the LDF was disunited,” noted the Central Committee report. “It should be examined whether factionalism has adversely affected the organisational work in certain areas,” it added.
