Kodiyeri Balakrishnan welcomed him to the party with a red shawl when he reached AKG Centre. P S Prashanth, who had left the Congress earlier and joined the CPM accompanied Anil Kumar. Anil Kumar had stated that he has joined the CPM without any pre-conditions. He showered criticisms on KPCC chief K Sudhakaran while announcing his resignation from the party.

Had stated that no one would leave the party after the new leadership came. However, a landslide happened in the congress now. Anil Kumar, who had the keys of the KPCC office, leaving the party is a sign of that. Everyone will get due representation they deserve in the CPM, Kodiyeri said while inviting Anil Kumar.
