Communist Party of India (Marxist) State secretary Kodiyeri Balakrishnan on Saturday maintained that there’s nothing unusual in senior leader G. Sudhakaran deciding to give the forthcoming party congress in Kannur between April 6 and 10 a miss.
“The party does not have any issues with him,” Mr. Balakrishnan told the media in Kannur on the sidelines of a protest organised by the party against the Centre’s ‘anti-people policies’ and rising fuel prices.
Mr. Sudhakaran had informed the party that he was indisposed and would not be in a position to attend the party congress. Those unable to attend the party congress from Ernakulam and Palakkad had also been replaced and, therefore, nothing was amiss, he said.
