Thiruvananthapuram: After the Congress in Kerala decided to initiate crowdfunding for meeting campaign expenses, CPI is also following the footsteps.
CPI candidate in Thiruvananthapuram Panniyan Raveendran already started sharing his bank account details through social media seeking support for electioneering.
Many CPI leaders also said that the party is facing acute financial crunches to meet campaign expenses and that too when many seats like Thrissur where CPI candidates are contesting are witnessing tight triangular contests.
CPI is the second largest coalition partner of the ruling Left Democratic Front in Kerala.
Congress in Kerala recently decided to go for crowdfunding to raise funds for electioneering in view of the party's fund crunches caused by freezing of bank accounts by the Income Tax department.
