CPI(M) General Secretary M.A. Baby stated that the party is poised to make sacrifices in an alliance with opposition forces aiming to unseat the BJP in Assam. The Left party has initiated preparations for next year's assembly elections, identifying 14 significant constituencies where it holds a substantial presence.
Baby criticized the BJP for exacerbating socio-political and cultural tensions, accusing them of labeling Bengali-speaking Muslims as 'miyas' or Bangladeshi immigrants, a demeaning term historically used in the region. The CPI(M) General Secretary also condemned the state's decision to arm indigenous communities in sensitive areas.
Emphasizing the necessity for unity among opposition parties, Baby stressed the importance of the upcoming elections as a platform to counter BJP's influence and restore harmony in Assam. Discussions with other Left parties and regional groups continue, as CPI(M) prepares reports for their central committee's strategic directions.
