KOLKATA:
The Communist Party of India (Marxist) leadership finds no apparent reason why the United Progressive Alliance (UPA) Government should be facing any immediate threat to its survival in the wake of the decision of the Samajwadi Party to withdraw support to it.
"They [the UPA] have a majority," CPI (M) general secretary Prakash Karat said here on Wednesday when asked whether the Samajwadi Party's decision would have any impact on the Government's survival.
"We have not discussed the matter yet," he said, declining to comment further on the issue.
Mr. Karat, along with some other members of the CPI (M) Polit Bureau, was here to pay his last respects to Chittabrata Majumdar, colleague in the Polit Bureau and general secretary of the Centre of Indian Trade Unions, who passed away on Tuesday.
