THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: At the CPM district secretariat meeting held yesterday, it was discussed that there is a need to correct the activities of the government and the growth of the BJP should be seriously looked into.
The arrears in social pensions influenced the election results. At least three months of arrears should have been paid. The high level of criticism against the SFI leadership in connection with the death of Siddharth, a student of Pookode Veterinary College, has backfired. The meeting of LDF convener EP Jayarajan with BJP leader Prakash Javadekar on the election day brought embarrassment to the party. The EP is constantly putting pressure on the party. Leaders said the party can win local elections only if it makes corrections.
More serious than the Left Front’s defeat in two constituencies in the district is the huge rise in BJP votes. A study should be done on this. For the third time in a row, the LDF has been relegated to the third position in Thiruvananthapuram. Rajeev Chandrasekhar came very late as a BJP candidate, but the vote received by the candidate is shocking. If Sashi Tharoor had not been the Congress candidate, the result would have been in favor of the BJP.
Many people have received personal benefits from the central government, including the families of CPM workers. The Secretariat also assessed that the problems in the local party led to the flight of basic votes. The election review report submitted by the secretary also states that if the votes received by the BJP candidate are not taken seriously despite the party’s district secretary V. Joy contesting in Attingal, the district will become in your favor in the future. The attitude of the police caused the distancing of common people from the party. The party’s district committee meeting will be held today and tomorrow.
