The state leadership has sought an explanation from the district leadership on the mega thiruvathira held at Parassala. CPM state secretary Kodiyeri Balakrishnan had the other day asserted that it was wrong to hold such an event before the funeral of SFI activist Dheeraj Rajendran, stabbed to death. Minister V Sivankutty also criticized for holding the event with more than 500 women participating at a time when Covid cases are rising in the state. He told the media that there was negligence and that it should have been avoided. Meanwhile, CPM district secretary Anavur Nagappan said holding the event was wrong. He said the event should have been postponed. Anavur Nagappan added that when everyone came dressing up for the event, they were not able to postpone the event. The event was held in the presence of leaders including politburo member M A Baby. Baby was criticized for not opposing the event and he was seen enjoying the function. The CPM threw Covid precautions to the wind by organizing a mega thiruvathira performance in Parassala as part of the district meet. It has however stoked a controversy. Almost 550 people attended the function. The performance was conducted in the presence of leaders including CPM politburo member M A Baby. The mega thiruvathira was organized as part of the CPM district meet starting on January 14 at Parassala. The function was organized under the leadership of Janadhipathya Mahila Association Parassala area committee. It was organized at a time when the order that only a maximum of 150 people can partake in programmes organized in public places exists. The order was issued following the severe spread of Covid-19. Despite the state government imposing strict restrictions to combat the Omicron strain of coronavirus, including a seven-day mandatory home quarantine for international passengers, CPM held the big Thiruvathira on Tuesday in Parassala with the participation of over 500 women performers. The number of people allowed for indoor programmes was limited to 75 and outside functions to 150 during a Covid review meeting headed by chief minister Pinarayi Vijayan on January 4. According to the official announcement, the limitation applies to weddings, funerals, social, political and cultural functions.
