THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: After prolonged deliberations and lobbying of prominent groups within the Congress, the new KPCC organisational list is out, with the high command heeding party state chief Mullappally Ramachandran’s ‘one man one post’ demand.
However, working presidents Kodikunnil Suresh and K Sudhakaran, both MPs, retained their party positions.While announcing the 47-member list comprising 12 vice-presidents, 34 general secretaries and one treasurer, AICC general secretary (organisation) K C Venugopal said the second list consisting of the names of secretaries would be announced before February 10. The new list, which has no elected leaders, was announced by giving due weightage to cast-community and group factors.
Only three women — Padmaja Venugopal and K C Rosakutty (vice-presidents) and D Sona (general secretary) — figure in the list.Four new working presidents suggested by A-I groups were not considered.
Both T N Prathapan and V D Satheeshan, recommended for working president’s post, had opted out following displeasure against a jumbo committee.
