It is with deep sadness that we report the passing of Azhikutty, the revered sister of former Kerala Chief Minister V.S. Achuthanandan. She breathed her last in the early hours of Thursday, October 16, 2025, at her residence in Paravoor, near Alappuzha, at the age of 95. For several months leading up to her demise, Azhikutty had been bedridden, bravely contending with various age-related ailments.
Azhikutty was a central figure in her family, being the only sister to V.S. Achuthanandan and his two brothers, Gangadharan and Purushan. Tragically, all three of her brothers had already passed away before her.
Despite his own passing in July 2025, V.S. Achuthanandan cherished his visits to his sister, especially during significant family occasions such as Onam. His final heartwarming visit to their ancestral home to see her was in 2019, a memory undoubtedly held dear by all who knew them.
