Tiruvanchoor's clarification came in the wake of the Union Minister seeking an explanation through social network Facebook.
Talking to reporters here today, Tiruvanchoor said he had also written a letter explaining the circumstances of his statement and its back ground.
"I had not stated in the assembly that Ramachandran gave a list of names to be included as accused in the Revolutionary Marxist Party (RMP) leader T P Chandrasekhern murder case". Also, I had not made any critical comment on Ramachandran, he said.
"CPI-M in the state was trying to misinterpret my remarks in the assembly for political gains", he said.
His statement in the House about Ramachandaran's remarks on T P Chandrasekhran case had triggered a controversy with CPI(M) seeking explanation from both state and Central Minister.
Quoting the assembly proceedings record, he said "what I was referring to was the statement of Ramachandaran that only small fishes have landed in police net in Chandrasekheran murder case", Tiruvanchoor said.
