Crisis management skills of the CPI(M) national leadership will beput to a severe test in the days to come, as veteran leader andformer Chief Minister V.S. Achuthanandan has virtually dared theparty to take action against him with an open tirade against theState secretary Pinarayi Vijayan. From available indications, the CPI(M) Central leadership haschosen not to take immediate cognisance of Mr. Achuthanandan'soutburst against Mr. Vijayan, which has had a definitive, thoughmuted, impact on the State party and its current leadership.Although some leaders closely aligned with Mr. Vijayan and thedominant faction in the State CPI(M) have tried to defend him, theCPI(M) State secretary has been quite restrained in his response.He has publicly told everyone not to join issue with Mr.Achuthanandan, possibly as advised by the Central leaders. But that is only for the time being. The coming days could turn outto be crucial for the State party and Mr. Achuthanandan himself asthe dominant faction is not likely to take his accusations lyingdown. They are likely to make the first move to settle scores oncethe Neyyattinkara Assembly by-election, due on June 2, is over. Barely a month ago, the State CPI(M) leadership was a picture ofconfidence. It had successfully hosted the 20 party Congress andalso ensured that Mr. Achuthanandan, for long a headache for thedominant section in the State party, did not return to the PolitBureau. But the brutal murder of party dissident T.P.Chandrasekharan on May 4 ripped open the latent fissures, givingMr. Achuthanandan the opportunity to hit back at the leadershipwith a vehemence not seen in recent times. He went to the extent oflikening party State secretary Pinarayi Vijayan to the late S.A.Dange, who was the general secretary of the undivided CommunistParty of India in 1964. He contended that Mr. Vijayan's depictionof Chandrasekharan and his comrades as ‘traitors' was verysimilar to Dange's description of the 32 leaders, includinghimself, who had walked out of the CPI national council in 1964 as‘enemies of the working class.' The CPI later expelled Dange. Mr. Achuthanandan's attempt was clearly to add an ideologicaldimension to the massive public anger over Chandrasekharan's murderand embarrass the State CPI(M) leadership, which is already on thedefensive with the special investigation team probing the murdernabbing a few and zeroing in on other elements allegedly connectedwith the party at the local level, that too on the eve of a crucialAssembly by-election. The hard core support that Mr. Achuthanandan commands in the partyorganisation is marginal, but the potential impact of the emotiveissues that he has raised is hard to ignore. And that is preciselywhat makes this a tough crisis that both the State and Centralleadership of the party might find difficult to handle.
