Press Statement

 

 

The Polit Bureau of the Communist Party of India (Marxist) has issued the
following statement:

 

On Tripura Election Verdict

 

The verdict of the people of Tripura will lead to the formation of a
BJP-IPFT alliance government in the state.  After 25 years in government,
the Left Front has been voted out of office.

 

The BJP has, apart from other factors, utilized massive deployment of money
and other resources to influence the elections.  The BJP was able to
consolidate all the anti-Left votes virtually appropriating the erstwhile
main opposition party, the Congress.  

 

The Polit Bureau thanks the 45 per cent of the voters who extended support
to the CPI(M) and the Left Front. The Party will carefully examine the
reasons for this electoral setback and take necessary remedial measures.  

 

The CPI(M) assures the people of Tripura that it will continue to champion
the cause of all sections of the working people and uphold tribal-non tribal
unity.
