Days after the joint Opposition meeting, General Secretary of Communist Party of India (Marxist) Sitaram Yechury attacked All India Trinamool Congress party alleging that the State administration is complicit in the political violence that has killed 10 persons during the ongoing panchayat elections.
“They can’t say they want democracy in India and therefore, oust the BJP and then in Bengal [you throttle democracy]. That is not acceptable,“ he said. His comments come days after the two parties sat across each other in the joint Opposition meeting held on June 23 in Patna.
