On the 92nd foundation day of the party, CPI leader D Raja stressed the need for "secular, democratic and Left parties" to come together.
"The RSS-BJP combine is trying to subvert the Constitution. So the need of the hour is to build up a front to counter such moves," he said, addressing party workers here.
Reminding the workers about the contribution of the Left in India's struggle for independence, Raja said, "The Communists who fought against the British will now fight against the RSS-BJP combine to liberate the people of India from the clutches of fascist communal elements".
The CPI today organised a political meeting at Ajoy Bhavan, its headquarters in Delhi, to commemorate the day when the party was founded on December 26, 1925.
Raja was apparently referring to Union minister Ananth Kumar Hegde's recent remarks at an event inKukanur town in Karnataka's Koppal district, where he had said that while he respected the Constitution, "it will be changed in the days to come".
"We are here for that and that is why we have come," the five-time Lok Sabha MP from Karnataka had said.
