"All India Forward Bloc will support Shri Hamid Ansari in the ensuing vice-presidential election," AIFB General Secretary Debabrata Biswas said.
"The Left parties have unanimously supported Shri Ansari in the last election as he as a secular leader and known educationist. His candidature was a choice of the Left parties too in the last election," Biswas said in a release.
He said that Ansari's tenure as the Vice-President was non-controversial.
"AIFB appeals to the other Left and secular parties to extend their support to Hamid Ansari," he said.
