One of the most prominent opposition leaders, Yechury has been known for his anti-BJP stance both inside and outside Parliament.Yechury’s clout in the Left Front is evident from the fact that he has been a member of the CPI(M)’s central committee since 1984 and politburo since 1992.Yechury’s term in the Rajya Sabha ended in 2020 when the CPI(M)’s Kerala faction led by Prakash Karat prevailed on the party to deny a re-nomination to the party general secretary on grounds that as a rule, no one is nominated beyond two terms.Further details of his condition awaited.
