Yechury said the coming together of the Janata Parivar with the JD(U) and RJD, after resolving their differences, as a “very good” development.
The CPM continues to remain non-committal over its possible alliance with the Janata Parivar in the assembly elections in Bihar, saying it will take a decision after discussing “developments” with other Left parties.
“What we have decided is that strengthening of the Left is strengthening a force against communal forces. Left has been the most consistent and will remain the most consistent and strong anti-communal force in the country… We shall meet now with other Left parties and see what developments are taking place and accordingly, take decisions. But now, our decision is to contest these elections along with Left parties,” party General Secretary Sitaram Yechury said on Monday.
