Amid intense speculation over possible further action against veteran leader A. Padmakumar, the two-day extended district committee meeting of the Communist Party of India (Marxist) [CPI(M)] began here on Tuesday (October 6, 2026) to review its electoral setback and organisational weaknesses.
Politbureau member A. Vijayaraghavan inaugurated the meeting, while district secretary Raju Abraham presented the report. A total of 106 delegates, including district committee members, area committee secretaries, three delegates from each area committee and three representatives of mass organisations, are attending the meeting.
As the meeting enters its second day on Wednesday, speculation is rife that the CPI(M) leadership may initiate further action against Mr. Padmakumar, former president of the Travancore Devaswom Board (TDB) and legislator, who has been arraigned as an accused in the Sabarimala gold theft case.
