BJP sheds 'ego hassles' in its bid to defeat Left
The Bharatiya Janata Party today asserted that it was its patriotic responsibility to free the country from the Communists and that it will extend full support to any party which also had a similar goal.
BJP spokesperson Sushma Swaraj said
her party did not stand on ''false prestige in talking to like-minded
parties for reaching some electoral understanding''.
She termed as positive West Bengal Congress leader Mamata Banerjee's remark that the BJP was not an untouchable and that she was expecting the party to contact her. ''We have no ego problem. It hardly matters whether we contact her or she takes the initiative. Both of us have the Communists as common enemy,'' Swaraj said.
Referring to the United Front, the BJP leader claimed that
cracks have come to the fore within the combine. In this regard, she cited the examples of Samajwadi Party leader and Defence Minister
Mulayam Singh Yadav and Tamil Maanila Congress leader G K Moopanar who are reportedly trying to forge an alliance with the
Congress.
