CPM to decide on Kerala infighting today


The CPM Politburo got down to serious work at the beginning of the party's two-day meet on Saturday -- to settle the open turf war between Kerala Chief Minister VS Achuthanandan and party's Kerala chief Pinarayi Vijayan.

Both have been involved in a long-standing dispute over the 10-year-old SNC Lavalin case in which Vijayan is accused of corruption.

CPM leaders have been completely silent on what's being discussed inside the Politburo, but outside several possibilities were being discussed to resolve the Kerala crisis.

  • Both Achuthanandan and Vijayan continue in their respective positions after being reprimanded
  • Achuthanandan and Vijayan make way for younger Leadership
  • Vijayan volunteers to step down as CPM state secretary while Achuthanandan continues as Chief Minister but faces disciplinary action like suspension from the Politburo

Sources say the party is trying to work out a compromise and it will issue a statement on its final decision on Sunday.
