Look where we are!

The Congress’ ‘outside supporter,’ Samajwadi Party (SP), joined the Left protest against the disinvestment policy of the UPA government in the Lok Sabha. The Congress-led UPA also showed aggression. Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee told CPI(M) leader Basudeb Acharya, “Thank god we didn’t follow your policies. Otherwise, we would have occupied your position instead of leading the country today.” The Congress secured a record 206 seats in the 15th Lok Sabha while the CPI(M) recorded its lowest ever tally of just 16 seats.
