Amid the heightened social media campaign to induct K K Shailaja into the new cabinet, the CPI(M) on Wednesday said the dropping of the popular health minister was a “political and organisational” decision of the party and there would not be any relook into it.

Asked about the trending campaigns on the social media platforms to bring back ‘Shailaja Teacher’, as she is fondly being called, CPI(M)’s state acting secretary A Vijayaraghavan said it did not come to his notice. “The party has to take into account its political and organisational interests. As a ruling party, it has to give due consideration to protect the interest of the state also. It arrives at such decisions after serious contemplation.”
