Assam Election
KARIMGANJ, April 8: Communist Party of India (Marxist), Karimganj District committee urged upon the people of Karimganj (reserved for scheduled caste) Lok Sabha constituency to reject both the Congress and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in the ensuing parliamentary election to be held on April 16. At the same time, the party appealed to vote for a secular candidate who could be able to ensure defeat of both Congress and BJP, explaining the party’s view point in a press meet held today in the office of the party at Kalibari road here. Nirmal Dey, secretary of the CPI(M)’s Karimganj district committee clarified that his party had not been advocating in favour of any particular candidate but left the decision to the electorates. It may be mentioned that, Karimganj LS seat is likely to be contested mainly by Congress, BJP and AUDF, though a total of 15 candidates are in the fray including SUCI. But all the remaining 12 candidates are unlikely to be entered in the main contest. Under the circumstances, AUDF candidate Rajesh Malah would be benefited from the CPI(M)’s point of view since they were interested to come to an understanding with AUDF which ultimately failed. But electorates of this constituency are unlikely to accept AUDF as a secular party, though the party said it would favour Hindu immigrants, who came from Bangladesh after 1971, to be given Sharanarthi (Refugee) status.
Dey said, strength of CPI(M) and leftists in the parliament need to be increased in order to ensure victory of the third force in the Lok Sabha. It may further be mentioned that, though in Karimganj LS constituency there is no candidate for CPI(M), the party candidate Dipak Bhattacharjee has been contesting Silchar LS seat against stalwarts like–– Santosh Mohan Deb (Congress), Kabindra Purkayastha (BJP) and Badruddin Ajmal (AUDF).
CPI(M) district committee secretary heavily criticized the earlier six year rule of the NDA government at the Centre. Besides he also criticized the economic policies of the UPA government, adding that certain anti-people policies of the said government could be foiled by the leftist parties in the parliament.THE SENTINEL
