Communist Party of India General Secretary A B Bardhan yesterday urged the Praja Rajyam Party (PRP) of actor-turned-politician Chiranjeevi to join hands with the Left parties and work for an alternative to both the Congress and the Bharatiya Janata Party.
While maintaining that the Telugu Desam Party, which led the four-party alliance comprising the Left parties and the Telangana Rashtra Samiti (TRS) in the just-concluded elections, as a 'friendly party,' he told a press conference here, "PRP is welcome to join hands with the CPI in an effort to forge an alternative to the Congress and BJP." Upset with the TRS over its "inconsistent" stand, Mr Bardhan wondered why that party went to the BJP-led NDA after fighting the simultaneous elections to the Lok Sabha and the State Assembly as a constituent of the TDP-led four party alliance comprising the Left parties.
