Despite Kerala opposition, Raja re-elected gen secy of CPI for third straight term

The Kerala unit, however, opposed extending the age relaxation to him.

Raja became the first Dalit leader to head a communist party in the country when he was given the responsibility in 2019 after the retirement of Sudhakar Reddy. He was reelected at the Party Congress in Vijayawada, Andhra Pradesh, in 2022.

According to the sources, though there were heated exchanges over the age limit, consensus emerged to relax the age limit of 75 years for Raja.
