A weakened Congress is unable to rally all the secular opposition parties, the CPI (M) said in its draft political resolution released ahead of the 23rd party congress scheduled to be held in Kannur, Kerala. in April this year.

The 80-page resolution, which will be open to amendments sent by every party member, is deeply critical of the Congress. It states that the Congress’ “political influence and organisational strength have been declining and currently it is plunged in a series of crises with defections of several leaders to the BJP in various States.”
