Thiruvananthapuram: Reacting to the CBI court verdict in Lavalin case, CPI-M State secretary Pinarayi Vijayan on Tuesday said the haunting phase of his political career was almost over.
Talking to reporters here, Pinarayi Vijayan said it showed that truth would triumph and it also marked the end of a harrowing phase in his career with political rivals haunting him.
The CPI-M leader said he had withstood and survived unscathed mainly due to his firm conviction that he had not committed any error and also due to unstinted support extended by his party.
Vijayan also said this should also be a lesson for those in power against 'misusing' investigating agencies for securing political gains.
Observers said the verdict would enable Vijayan become more powerful in the party and emerge as the central figure of the LDF in the next assembly elections.
