The CPI(M) Kannur district secretary says individuals are only ‘symbols of the movement’
CPI(M) Kannur district secretary M.V. Jayarajan has defended the removal of K.K. Shailaja from the second Pinarayi Vijayan Cabinet. Speaking to the media, Mr. Jayarajan reminded that Ms. Shailaja was a newcomer in 2016. Initially, when the Health Department was offered, she expressed unwillingness to take the role up to the party secretary Kodiyeri Balakrishnan. She had cited her lack of experience for it. It was the strength given by the party that has made Ms. Shailaja a good minister. Her victory is the victory of the community, he said.More Related News
