Alappuzha DCC president M Liju had quit soon after the poll results were announced.
The resignation of Sreekandan followed the online hearing by the Ashok Chavan panel appointed by AICC to study the party’s poll debacle in Kerala, Assam and West Bengal. On Wednesday, former Opposition leader Ramesh Chennithala appeared before the five-member panel online. He pointed out that the organisational weakness and lapses of booth-level committees contributed greatly to the failure.
