Political Veteran G Sudhakaran Parts Ways with CPI(M): A New Independent Journey Ahead

Veteran CPI(M) leader G Sudhakaran has announced his exit from the party and will contest as an independent candidate in Ambalappuzha, citing personal attacks by party cadres. He pledges to uphold Communist values without aligning with UDF or any other party while focusing on anti-corruption in his campaign.

In a surprising development, seasoned CPI(M) leader G Sudhakaran declared his departure from the party, announcing his decision to run independently in the Ambalappuzha constituency. This comes after Sudhakaran accused some CPI(M) cadres of conducting personal attacks against him on social media.

The 79-year-old political figure, known for his clean image and administrative capabilities, has chosen to carry forward his campaign independently, leaving behind a six-decade-long association with the Communist party. Sudhakaran emphasized his commitment to the party's ideology but expressed disappointment with local leadership's negligence.

The former state minister clarified he would not seek alliances with UDF or any other political entities, focusing instead on addressing corruption issues during his campaign. He remains steadfast in his beliefs, promising not to defame the Communist party or its members during his election run.
