CPI-M general secretary Sitaram Yechury on Saturday said there was 'match-fixing' between the BJP and the Trinamool Congress (TMC) over the CBI probe into the multi-crore-rupee Saradha scam.

"Match-fixing is going on between the BJP and the Trinamool Congress. They need each other for reasons. It was clear in parliament," Yechury told the media here.

"The Trinamool needs the BJP to somehow evade the Saradha investigation and the BJP needs the Trinamool to pass all anti-people bills in parliament. There are mutual interests... vote banks," Yechury added.
