Accuses Left of adopting double standards Narendra Modi should resign, he says KASARAGOD: The efforts of the Communist Party of India-Marxist (CPI-M) to revive the third front will end in a fiasco and help to strengthen the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), All India Congress Committee secretary Kodikkunnil Suresh has said. He was speaking at a press conference here on Friday. Mr. Suresh said all previous attempts to forge a third front at the national level had met with failure. The vehement opposition of the Left parties to the Indo-U.S. nuclear agreement was affecting the implementation of various welfare programmes being drafted by the Union government. Mr. Suresh charged the Left of adopting double standards regarding welfare of minorities. On the one hand, the CPI(M) was clamouring for implementation of the Sachar report and on the other it was torturing minorities in West Bengal, he said. He said a large number of people who were attacked at Nandigram in West Bengal by CPI(M) cadres belonged to the minority communities. Mr. Suresh said the United Progressive Alliance government was bound to implement the Sachar report. He pointed out that the Union government had a ministry for minorities and a minister in charge of the welfare of minority communities. He demanded that Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi resign following the revelations of the Tehelka weekly which exposed his connection to those who were responsible for the Gujarat riots in 2002. On the return of NCP leader K. Karunakaran to the Congress, Mr. Suresh said it was for the Congress president to decide on the issue.
