CPI(M) State secretary Pinarayi Vijayan said there was no reason to doubt whether Mr. Achuthanandan would lead the alliance because he was the unquestioned leader of the party. “There need be no doubt or anxiety on that score. He is our unquestioned leader. Then how can there be a question whether he would be leading the party,” he asked.

The CPI(M) State secretary said the party needed nobody's recommendation to field Mr. Achuthanandan as he was no novice in electoral battles. The party had its procedures to follow and had fielded Mr. Achuthanandan observing all such procedures, he said. The party had also decided to field T.K. Gangadharan in the Mahe constituency of Puducherry.
