CPM has no other go but to co-operate with chosen parties

The central committee of the CPM has allowed its West Bengal unit to craft an electoral strategy that will see a situation for it to co-operate with democratic forces in West Bengal.

The party had been decimated in West Bengal at the hands of Mamata Banerjee’s Trinamul Congress.

Comrades in Kerala are by and large against any truck with the Congress Party, for they fear that would ring the death knell for it in Kerala where Congress is its main foe.

Whatever understanding it arrives at in West Bengal, it would be tedious to oust Mamata Banerjee, for she has already secured a strong position in that State.
