VS, part of party, says Yechuri

KOLKATA: Opposition leader V S Achuthanandan and the party should not be seen separately, said CPM general secretary Sitaram Yechuri. Talking to reporters after the politburo meet ahead of the CPM plenum starting tomorrow, he said VS is also part of the party.

If the CPM has a role in the victory seen in the local body polls held recently in Kerala, then VS is also a part of it.  VS is a senior leader respected by the party. VS and the party should not be seen separately, he said.

When asked who will lead the assembly polls in Kerala, he said one need not be young, age and experience are the main factors. There are no restrictions in the case of age.  The state faction will hold talks on front’s expansion.

Yechuri said that has not come across the statement of Pinarayi Vijayan that Muslim League is a secular party.
