"We are in touch with regional parties and centrist forces," the CPI National Secretary and Rajya Sabha member told reporters here, adding, based on "balance of political forces and specific situation" in states, tactical electoral line would be evolved.
The Left parties would strive to bring together non-BJP (NDA) and non-Congress (UPA) forces and try to project and provide a viable alternative to the people, Raja said. Left parties would try to work out some electoral adjustments with regional parties and other centrist parties.
He also termed the four years in office of UPA-II as a "failure". "There is nothing to celebrate". The Congress-led UPA-II has mismanaged the economy, with growth declining in industrial, manufacturing and services sectors.
Only corporates and big business houses have benefited during the last four years making huge profits, while common people were subjected to more and more economic hardships with subsidies being slashed, he said.
"This government is a failure," he claimed.
