Kerala CPI leader refuses to take up the offered position as corporation chairman

Politics is usually a battleground for power position and there is some exception. Communist Party of India (CPI) leader from Kerala's Kasargode district T.K. Krishnan is an exception for the power-driven political activities. The latest incident proves this again.

Krishnan, who is the State Committee Member of CPI refused to take up the Chairman post of the Poultry Development Corporation, Kerala. In the light of Krishnan's letter to the state leadership to withdraw his nomination to the concerned position, the CPI state committee decided to nominate AITUC Wayanad district president T.K. Moorthy to the position.

On December 15 the party State Committee decided to distribute the 15 board and corporation posts allotted to CPI among the districts. Krishnan received his share from Kasargod district. Although he had already informed at the meeting that he was not interested in the post, the party did not consider it.

He then wrote a letter to the leadership stating his disinterest to take up the offered position. When the party's State Secretary Kanam Rajendran inquired about the matter with Krishnan, he was adamant that it should be avoided. Then the executive joined and TK. Murthy was asked to assume the post.
