Claiming that there were no differences between the principals of the Left and the Congress, CPI(M) state secretary Surya Kanta Mishra today said they both would continue to fight together on bigger issues like communalism and price rise.
Talking to journalists at the Left Front party office here at Alimuddin Street this afternoon, Mishra said, "There are no differences on the principals between the Congress and the Left. In our fight for issues like communalism and price rise Congress will be there."
Mishra further stated that both the parties would continue to fight together on a common agenda and the "jot" (alliance) would have to face the test during their fight.
Earlier, stating that over nine party activists have so far died in pre and post poll violence "organised by Trinamool Congress", Mishra said "the ruling party has started a fascist way of attacking Left workers all around the state".
"They (TMC) have changed their way of assaulting our party workers. This time (after winning this year's Assembly elections), they have a more planned and shrewd way of attacks on our partymen... The idea is clear. This is aimimg to eliminate the oppositions so that in the panchayat and other elections they may not cause much impact," Mishra said.
