Mocking at the proposed Congress-CPI(M) alliance in West Bengal ahead of the state assembly polls, BJP today said it is a tie up between two political parties "trying to stay relevant in state politics".
"The alliance is basically an alliance without any ideology or principle. This is an alliance between two political parties who are weak and are trying to stay relevant in state politics as they are incapable of fighting Trinamool Congress alone," BJP national secretary Siddharth Nath Singh today said.
Congress had hailed the decision by CPI(M) yesterday to seek cooperation from all "democratic forces".
CPI(M) Central Committee after its meeting had said "In West Bengal the main task is to restore democracy and foil aggressive efforts by communal forces to polarise people in the state by ousting the incumbent Trinamool Congress government.
