Tamil Nadu unit CPI Secretary D Pandian today claimed some political parties were trying to create rift between his party and AIADMK but asserted they would not succeed.
"Till now CPI is part of the coalition--on the basis of sharing constituency--even after the announcement by the ruling party that it would contest all the 40 Lok Sabha seats in the state and Puducherry," he told reporters here.
Since CPI had good understanding with AIADMK and also knew the party well, the efforts by some parties to break the relationship will not not succeed, he said.
