The city's district secretariat of the Marxist party recommended her name for the post during a meeting. If approved, she will become the youngest Mayor ever in the country.
Arya, who has been a strong CPM worker right from her childhood, is currently state president of CPM-backed 'Balasanghom', which is considered as the world's largest children's organisation. She is also a member of SFI Kerala state committee.
