Another CPI(M) Leader Madhu Mullassery Exits Party, Joins BJP

Even as Madhu Mullassery announced his exit from the party in the morning, the CPI(M) expelled him from its primary membership.

Days after a CPI(M) leader from Alappuzha quit the party and joined the BJP amidst reports of factional feuds in its conferences, another party leader on Tuesday took the same route.

Even as Madhu Mullassery announced his exit from the party in the morning, the CPI(M) expelled him from its primary membership.

Shortly thereafter, he was welcomed into the BJP by Suresh Gopi, the Union Minister of State for Petroleum, Natural Gas and Tourism, and former central minister V Muraleedharan, as well as other party leaders.
