The CPI(M) has moved away from people and the image of the party has been dented as evident from recent election results, including that of the Lok Sabha polls, senior party leader and West Bengal Chief Minister Buddhadeb Bhattacharjee has said.
“It is clear from the election results of the Lok Sabha and polls in some municipalities in the state that faith of the people in our party has dented,” party organ Ganasakti said today quoting him.
“A section of the poor people now think that we had looked after their interests in the past and no longer do so now,” the CPI(M) Politburo member told a closed-door general body meeting of the Left party at Barasat in North 24 Parganas district yesterday.
