Former Kerala Health Minister K.K. Shailaja on Sunday launched her book My Life as a Comrade: The Story of an Extraordinary Politician and the World That Shaped Her, at the Anna Centenary Library in Kotturpuram.
She said that she had not intended her book to be an autobiography but wanted it to be about the story of her grandmother, who “was a fighter but never became a well-known leader outside of her local communist circles”; her experiences as the Health Minister during the COVID-19 pandemic; and how society has changed over time.
