THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: CPM leader P Jayarajan has rejected the campaigns following the denial of seat in the Assembly elections. In a Facebook post, P Jayarajan demanded that party relatives stay away from campaigns linking his name with candidature on social media and elsewhere. He said the party was adopting organizational procedures to decide the candidates as per the norms.

Decision on what role to give as a party worker will be taken by the party. Dragging on to unnecessary controversies will only benefit the enemies at a time when the continuance of LDF administration should be assured. Jayarajan said he has nothing to do with the propaganda in the social media in the name of 'PJ Army'. Jayarajan said that legal action would be taken against those who campaigned against the morals of the party, including photos, without his knowledge or consent.

N Dheeraj had resigned as the district president of the Kannur Sports Council in protest of not giving Jayarajan a seat. There was a strong reaction on social media for the same.
