The Communist Party of India (CPI) has stressed on the need for “an alternative” to the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), which is trying to establish a ”theocratic state”. All democratic and secular forces should join hands to save the nation from BJP, which is trying to establish a theocratic State, the party asserted
“It’s not the question of a third alternative. It’s a question of an alternative to the BJP,” said CPI general secretary D. Raja.
Addressing a press conference here on Tuesday, Mr. Raja said the secular, democratic parties should be realistic and accommodative of each other, keeping in view the primary objective of defeating the BJP. It was missing in the recent elections in some State Assemblies. Hence, the BJP managed to win the game, he said, adding, the political parties should take it as a challenge to unseat the BJP in the 2024 elections.
