Kolkata: Several Left Front members on Friday blamed the CPI (M) for going overboard on the alliance with the Congress at the cost of Left partners and caused a dismal performance in the hustings.
We told the CPI (M) that there is a need for serious introspection as why this debacle happened. The CPI (M) had gone overboard on the alliance with Congress, even at the cost of Left partners, RSP state secretary Khsiti Goswami said.
They had forgotten their old friends. The result shows that people have not accepted this alliance," he said.
"The CPI (M) district leadership in many places has worked against the officially nominated Left Front candidates in places where there were friendly fights with the Congress," another Front partner said.
Several CPI (M) leaders also questioned the style of functioning of the top CPI (M) leadership.
"The Left Front government was formed out of mass struggles. But the top party leadership is now more interested in committee meetings and public rallies rather than mass contact. Until and unless you have mass contact, how will you find out your lacunae," CPI (M) leader Manash Mukherjee, who won from Kamarhati seat, said.
