THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: The Chief Minister and CPM were severely criticized in the CPI Kollam district conference. According to the working report presented in the conference, the additional police security is not suitable for the leftist Chief Minister and it is distancing him from the people. Criticism was also raised against the appointment of former Principal Secretary to the Chief Minister M Sivasankar and Sriram Venkataraman. People involved in controversies are getting appointed in the departments of CPI ministers. There are tendencies in the cooperative sector that are not compatible with the left view, states the working report.
The activities of Agriculture Minister P Prasad were also criticized as a failure. According to the report, the AISF is working in the campuses by enduring the attack of SFI. SFI thinks that even if ABVP and KSU win, AISF should not win. The report also states that among the LDF constituent parties, only CPM and CPI have roots in the district. District Secretary Mullakkara Ratnakaran presented the report. The district conference will conclude on Saturday.
