CPI-M Says, BJP Secretly Helping Congress

New Delhi, Nov 24: In a scathing attack on BJP, the CPI(M) today accused the main opposition of repeatedly entering into agreements with Congress to help the government “escape” a vote in Parliament on the issue of price rise.

“In the past three sessions, we have found that Congress and the main opposition party have come to some sort of an understanding repeatedly, bypassing the rest of Parliament and political parties,” senior CPI(M) leader Sitaram Yechury told reporters here.

He said the two parties have been “acting in tandem to help the UPA government escape voting” on the issue of price rise and “that is how Parliament has been functioning for the last three sessions”.

Referring to the disruption of parliamentary proceedings, he said, “Who stands to benefit? It suits the government not to have discussion on price rise and corruption....The main beneficiary of this is the government.”
