Most of West Bengal's ruling parties against advancing polls
Ignoring the views of a minor partner, the majority of West Bengal's ruling Left Front (LF) constituents say there is no need to advance the state assembly polls slated for mid 2011 just because of 'some electoral setbacks'.
Days after LF constituent West Bengal Socialist Party leader and Fisheries Minister Kiranmoy Nanda favoured early assembly elections saying 'people have turned against us', a prominent partner Forward Bloc dubbed his statement as "untimely."
"The LF and the LF government are both run through joint leadership of all constituent parties. One person can't say that the government should resign. Nanda and his party should have aired this view in a front meeting instead of going to the media," Forward Bloc all India general secretary Debabrata Biswas told IANS.
