...Says BJP 'perfected the art' of securing majority with 33% votes

Published on: 

Ridiculing BJP’s claims that the days of coalition governance were over, the CPI(M) said the party has now “perfected the art” of securing a majority while getting one-third of the votes or even less. “In the Parliament election, it had won a comfortable majority in the lok Sabha polling just 31 per cent of the votes cast. In Haryana, it has now won a majority by polling 33 per cent of the polled vote. In Maharashtra they got only 29 per cent votes. The BJP seems to be by now perfecting the art of securing for itself a majority, under multi-polar electoral contests while receiving a third or less percentage of people’s support,” senior CPI(M) leader Sitaram Yechury said.
