Time for Achuthanandan to act

Sir,
V S Achuthanandan will more powerful if he relinquishes the post of CM. It is only because of his present occupancy in the CM’s post he faces such a shame from the official faction and the corrupt ones of his own party. The CPI(M) decision to remove three of the most trusted aides of him is much more than an outright humiliation.
To reduce himself into a marionette of the neo-liberalists of his party is, seemingly, highly painful to those people who love and respect him.

The vicious majority of official faction is just a bubble. It can be easily blown off by rekindling the sex scandal cases, the SNC Lavelin issue, Munnar encroachment and the dubious HMT land deal. And why does, with all these weapons in his hand, Achuthananadan feel isolated? Karat also needs a jolt with his present distancing of the veteran Politburo member.
