Alappuzha , Veteran CPI leader and former PWD minister G Sudhakaran on Wednesday said he has decided not to renew his party membership and so didn’t apply for the same during the 2026 scrutiny process. Veteran CPI(M) leader G Sudhakaran opts not to renew party membership In a detailed Facebook post, Sudhakaran openly expressed displeasure over the alleged continuing neglect shown towards him by the Marxist party’s state and district leaderships and said he does not wish to cause inconvenience to the leaders by continuing in the party.

He has not been on good terms with the CPI leadership for some time and had been in the news many times for openly criticising some of the party leaders. His decision to cut the …

The Kerala High Court order absolving Kerala Pradesh Congress Committee (KPCC) president K. Sudhakaran of conspiracy charges in the politically sensational case relating to the attempt to murder Left Democratic Front (LDF) convener E.P. Jayarajan on board a train in Andhra Pradesh in 1995 has arguably come at a politically opportune moment for the beleaguered Congress veteran from Kannur.  For one, the case obligated senior leaders to rally around Mr. Sudhakaran despite discord about his functioning style and party reorganisation.  Victim of conspiracy Leader of the Opposition V.D. Satheesan said the verdict vindicated Congress’s stance that Mr. Sudhakaran was the victim of a Communist Party of India (Marxist) [CPI(M)] political conspiracy.  Senior Congress leader Ramesh Chennithala said the CPI(M) had relentlessly used the case to target Mr. Sudhakaran for 29 years. More leaders were expected to follow suit.  The verdict could not have come at a better time for Mr. Sudhkaran. His purging of “discontents” reinstated by M.M. Hassan and his flashy entry into the KPCC headquarters at Indira Bhavan had goaded his rivals in the …
