Communist Party of India (Marxist) leader Sitaram Yechury on Wednesday said Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M. K. Stalin was the most acceptable leader among the Chief Ministers of all non-BJP ruled States and appealed to him to convene a meeting of these Chief Ministers to discuss federalism, social justice and steps to protect the people of India.
However, Mr. Yechury was quick to add that the alternative leader to Prime Minister Narendra Modi would emerge after the parliamentary elections as was the case with Manmohan Singh, who replaced Atal Bihari Vajpayee as Prime Minister and ruled the country for 10 years.
Mr. Yechury was addressing a public meeting organised by the CPI(M) as part of its 23rd State conference here.
