'Left Front in a decisive position'

Guwahati, April 30. CPI General Secretary A B Bardhan today said the Left Front in Assam would be in a decisive position in the coming May 10 Assembly polls, and accused the new AGP-BJP alliance of being opportunistic and held Congress responsible for the State's ills.

Talking to reporters here, Bardhan said the people of Assam -- disillusioned with the AGP, BJP and Congress -- were now thinking of giving the Left and secular front a chance.

The newly formed Left and secular front in the State comprises the CPI, CPM (both were alliance partners in the AGP-led Government till it befriended the BJP), United Minorities Front (UMF) and Samajwadi Party.

He also alleged that the AGP-BJP poll alliance was between two "desperate, frustrated and opportunistic parties" with the regional party needing a strong ally after realising its hopes of coming back to power very little.
