CPM leader to contest polls as an independent candidate
The Morning Standard
|March 13, 2026
IN what could deal a blow to the CPM in the run-up to the assembly elections, senior leader and former minister G Sudhakaran on Thursday declared that he will contest as an independent candidate from Ambalappuzha, and the Congress signalling it may consider supporting him.
Announcing the decision at a press conference at his residence in Punnapra, Sudhakaran said his candidature would be a protest against what he described as the “hostile attitude of the CPM’s district leadership”. “I will contest the election as an independent candidate. I have not made any decision to join any other party or front. I expect the support of the people of the constituency,” said Sudhakaran, who has had a strained relationship with the party leadership for the past few years.
