[New Delhi] Leftists, Eyeing Bihar Elections,to Campaign Against BJP
After Congress+JD[u]Now Leftists to Campaign Against BJP
Left parties will launch a campaign against the BJP from poll-bound Bihar next month to expose the party on various issues including alleged corruption.
As per CPI General Secretary S Sudhakar Reddy , central leaders of all Left parties will hold a convention in Patna on September 7, setting the tone of the campaign “to expose BJP on corruption” issues in the Hindi belt.
The campaign by the Left parties comes in the wake of BJP announcing its plan to undertake campaigns in constituencies of opposition MPs following wash-out of Parliament’s Monsoon session.
The ruling party had blamed opposition parties for poor business during the session.
Exhibiting good show in Bihar during the Lok Sabha elections, the BJP and its allies had managed to win 31 out of 40 seats. In another politically crucial state in the Hindi belt, Uttar Pradesh, the BJP had secured 71 out of the total 80 seats there.
Senior BJP leader Arun Jaitley had on Thursday said that one Union Minister and four NDA MPs will hold public meetings and events in the constituencies of the 44 Congress MPs and nine Left lawmakers to “expose” the opposition over wash-out of Monsoon session.
