Left Parties in India plan to blame Congress party responsible for economic blunders
Media Release
Jun. 3, 2008

Top leaders of CPI(M), CPI, RSP and Forward Bloc are expected to meet in the third week of this month to devise a common stand the four parties should have vis-à-vis the Congress in view of the elections.

"Normally, the Left parties hold deliberations only on specific issues like the nuclear deal or price rise. But the upcoming meeting will discuss what stand the Left parties should have vis-à-vis the government and elections," Forward Bloc Secretary G Devarajan said. He said the meeting will deliberate on the overall relationship between the Congress-led government and Left parties in view of the ruling coalition "fast losing ground due to its anti-people policies." "The Left parties have to take note of people's anger against the government. We cannot turn a blind eye towards people's aspirations," he said. The RSP's decision to quit the UPA-Left Coordination Committee and its call to other Left parties to reconsider continuance of support are also expected to come up at the meeting. The Forward Bloc is not happy with the RSP taking a unilateral decision but will demand a discussion on the latter's suggestion that it was "high time to withdraw support to the UPA government". Acknowledging that RSP has the right to take independent stand on any issue, the Forward Bloc leader said the impact would have been "far more" if all the four Left parties had collectively decided on what to do about continuance in the Coordination Committee. "It was a collective decision to join the (UPA-Left) Coordination Committee. It would have been better if the withdrawal was also a collective decision," Devarajan said.
