Left, UNPA to deepen cooperation

Anita Joshua

NEW DELHI: The Left parties and the United National Progressive Alliance (UNPA) on Thursday decided to extend their cooperation beyond the nuclear deal to issues such as price rise and farmers’ problems.

However, Communist Party of India general secretary A.B. Bardhan dismissed speculation that the interaction was another effort to revive the “third front.”

“Viable alternative”

“We don’t think there is a situation for creation of a third front. What we want to offer is a viable policy alternative to the Congress and the Bharatiya Janata Party-led coalitions. But that has to come through a people’s movement.”

Mr. Bardhan was talking to journalists after Samajwadi Party leaders Mulayam Singh and Amar Singh visited the CPI headquarters and had discussions with him and the party’s national secretary, D. Raja. Earlier, the SP leaders visited the CPI(M) headquarters for an interaction with general secretary Prakash Karat.
