she is still in congress alliance. The main point is that she is very old and even then she is active. Also, it is worth mention that she was required to separate from her husband who was in C.P.I. No other party will require a woman to live separate from her husband nor would any other woman in some other party accept intervention in her family life.
Yes , such a lady who suffered for party was expelled from the same party!!!

This was unfortunate. There is no room in C.P.I. (M) for any dissent. If you do not adhere to party line, they will expel.
That should be the policy.But in some cases it is found loosening.
