The CPI(M) on Wednesday announced its support to the AAP in 55 constituencies of Delhi. Addressing the media, CPI(M) general secretary Prakash Karat said the party members will vote for AAP, as the left parties want to block the BJP and Sangh Parivar. The left parties have fielded candidates in 15 constituencies. “There has been a major change in the political situation of the country after lok Sabha elections. The resolution has characterised this change as the Right Wing offensive under the Narendra Modi Government.
“This is fuelled by two forces. One by aggressive push for neo-liberal policies and second the offensive of the RSS led Hindutva forces. Together they constitute right wing offensive which is detrimental for the interest of the people in our country,” CPI (M) general secretary Prakash Karat told reporters adding, that “the resolution’s main direction is how to fight this right wing offensive”.
