CPI(M) State committee has nominated E.P. Jayarajan as LDF convenor. He replaces A. Vijayaraghavan who the 23rd party congress had elevated to the Polit Bureau.
CPI(M) State secretary Kodiyeri Balakrishnan said Mr. Vijayaraghavan’s political domain would now shift to New Delhi.
The State committee also appointed P. Sasi as political secretary to Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan. Mr. Balakrishnan said Mr. Sasi had prior experience running the office during the E.K. Nayanar government (1996-2001). “Moreover, the party has trusted him with the new assignment.”
