Senior Kerala minister M.V. Raghavan Thursday said the days of Communist Party of India-Marxist (CPI-M) politburo member and leader of the opposition V.S. Achuthanandan are numbered in the party.
'Soon after the forthcoming assembly polls here, Achuthanandan would be thrown out of the CPI-M. If the same yardstick that was applied to me when I was ousted from the CPI-M was followed, Achuthanandan would not have remained in the party till now,' he told reporters here. 'The CPI-M is waiting for the polls to be over before an action against Achuthanandan.'
Achuthanandan has been waging a battle against state secretary Pinarayi Vijayan. His biggest setback came in 1996 when he was billed as the chief minister but lost the assembly election from Mararikulam in Alappuzha district. This loss enabled E.K. Nayanar, who did not even contest the polls then, become the chief minister of Kerala for a third time.
'Today Vijayan has emerged as the clear leader and so Achuthanandan should be thrown out,' said Raghavan, who was himself ousted from the CPI-M in 1986 after being a legislator and top leader for 16 years. He then formed his own party - Communist Marxist Party - and joined the ruling United Democratic Front led by the Congress.
