Govindan also clarified that the CPM has consistently supported the ADM's family from the beginning. He explained that Divya's statement against the ADM in court was her personal opinion, not the official stance of the party.
He further assured that party leaders would continue to engage with Divya, who remains a member of the CPM. In a decision made during the Kannur district committee meeting yesterday, it was resolved to demote Divya to the branch level. The state secretariat, which convened online last night, approved this decision.
