Left parties to go it alone, CPI (M) releases list of constituencies where it will field its nominees

The two Left parties, the CPI (Marxist) and the CPI, have decided to contest on their own in the forthcoming elections to the Legislative Assembly.

The CPI (M) has announced a list of 17 constituencies from which it will field its candidates. The CPI is likely to announce its choice of constituencies after the party’s State executive meeting scheduled on Friday.

The CPI (M), which was initially firm on contesting from Miryalaguda, Palair, Bhadrachalam, Ibrahimpatnam, Madhira and Nalgonda constituencies, has increased the number to 17, with a majority in erstwhile Khammam and Nalgonda districts, in addition to Ibrahimpatnam, which it represented in the past and Musheerabad and Patancheru constituencies within the GHMC limits.
