CPI(M) Promises Key Roles for Veterans After Sudhakaran Targets Saji Cherian

The party says it will tap senior leaders’ experience without breaching its 75-year age cap to address concerns raised by the Alappuzha veteran.

Overview

  • CPI(M) state secretary M. V. Govindan said the party will assign essential responsibilities to senior leaders so they remain engaged despite the 75-year limit on top committees.
  • G. Sudhakaran accused Fisheries Minister Saji Cherian of trying to engineer his expulsion, citing celebratory claims of his ouster and rumours spread that he would join the BJP.
  • Sudhakaran alleged repeated cyberattacks and online insults targeting him and his family by individuals linked to the party and demanded action against those responsible.
  • The veteran said he will not take part in campaign activities but affirmed he remains a CPI(M) member and will carry out branch committee duties.
  • He criticised an internal probe led by Elamaram Kareem into 2021 election-related complaints as a shabby process and said the report had been leaked.
