Actor Suresh Gopi remembers late CPM leader Kodiyeri Balakrishnan. In the Facebook video message, the pain remains that they tried to visit him at the hospital in Chennai but it did not happen. Suresh Gopi said that Kodiyeri was the home minister who brought revolutionary changes in the grassroots police system in Kerala.
‘Dear Kodiyeri Balakrishnan. He is no longer with us. He worked for the people as a former home minister who brought about revolutionary changes in the police system of Kerala, in the grassroots police system of Kerala, as a representative of the people who reached the assembly as an MLA many times and as an activist who worked well for that party.’
‘From the very personal relationship I have maintained with him for almost 25 years, I have learned that he is a very nice man. An elder brother. His children, who are also my friends, share the pain of all of them and also participate in the pain of the Malayalees by standing at the level of forgetting politics in Malayalee society. Tears are paid to his memory, to his personality’. He said.
