VS Achuthanandan

Velikkakathu Sankaran Achuthanandan, Communist politician from Kerala, India. Polit Bureau member of Communist Party of India (Marxist) since 1985. Currently Leader of Opposition in Kerala Legislative Assembly. Born on 20 October 1923 in Alappuzha district of Kerala state,VS had to give up his studies after finishing VII standard.He entered the world of politics through Trade Union activities.Joined State Congress in 1938. Like many a young men of his age, he became disillusioned with the policies and politics of the Congress and he became member of the Communist Party in 1940.He was imprisoned for five years and six months; and has gone under ground for four and half years in his decades old political career.He was active in the Punnapra-Vayalar uprising. He was one among the 32 comrades who left the CPI National Council in 1964 to form the CPI(M).Secretary of the Kerala State Committee between 1980 and 1992,Member of the Polit Bureau since 1985, Elected to Kerala Legislative Assembly in 1967, 1970, 1991 and 2001, Leader of Opposition from 1992 to 1996 and from 2001 till date. ==He is one of the worst uncivilzed leader Kerala has ever witnesed.He is a trash who don't have a remote idea about economy.He is better as an oposition leaded because he is a retard always opposing everything.==

VS had gained enough popular support during his stint as the opposition leader. He did take active personal interestes in making visits to even the remotest of places, where ever he believed that the ruling government was not doing things in a right fashion, or done in an outright dishonest way. How ever a few of his statements, did create an impression that comrade Achuthanandan is basically against any development in the state of Kerala and still believes in outdated theories. There was a controversy that Achuthanandan used some under-hand techniques to elevate his son as a M.D of a Kerala government instituition by circumventing existing norms in recruitment. He is also now accused of using the communist ideology as a tool to neutralise other capable people in the party. His weird mannerisms and a strange dialogue presentation during his public speeches, have made many a mimicry artist imitate him in many TV/Stage programmes.

When the prospective candidate list for CPI(M) was published (for the elections of 2006), the name of VS Achuthanandan was conspiciously absent. This create an uproar across the state, and processions/protests were held in support of comrade VS Achuthanandan. The Polit Bureau finally succumbed to the pressure, and have now decided to field VS Achuthanandan from Malampuzha, a constituency in Palghat district, Kerala.

A quote from Comrade VS.com, attributes the following qualities in him. How ever allegations are being made that the site is created by a third party, whose neutrality is questionable.

For him, leadership didn't come in a platter. Neither does 
he see leadership just as a token of appreciation for the hardships 
he underwent, earlier in his political life. The responsibilities 
entitled on him is accepted as a mandate to share the hardships even 
more. At 76, you can find him with a youthful exuberance and in the 
midst of people whenever and wherever an atrocity is done. Its his passion 
for the soil, its sons that makes him a man of the masses. A humanitarian 
to the core, no barrier could ever stop him from his life motto.
