Even in the backdrop of CPI-M Central Committee’s recent decision not to have any truck with Congress, floor coordination with the Left is being looked forward to by Congress Legislature Party (CLP) in the forthcoming Budget session of the Assembly.

Leader of the Opposition in the state Assembly, Abdul Mannan told reporters today that floor co-ordination will be sought to be maintained when the session gets underway.

The CPI-M is free to take any organisational decision but its legislative wing have not informed us of its inability to take on the Treasury benches on different issues of people’s welfare, the leader of the Opposition said.

Moreover, we have not received any indication of any disinclination on the part of the CPI-M to part company with us on the floor of the House, he pointed out.

The CLP and LFLP party comprising CPI-M have often caught the Treasury bench members on the wrong foot during previous sessions. Rushing together in the well of the House and joining ranks during walk-outs, both the legislative parties have stuck to the electoral understanding they reached before the state Assembly elections last year.

Though the joining of forces of the two political outfits of divergent ideology failed to unseat Trinamul Congress government, the unlikely combination had its effect.

Despite having solid majority in the House, Trinamul Congress legislators often found themselves sitting in a House facing empty Opposition benches after the latter had zeroed in on issues like outbreak of dengue and alleged political interference in different aspects of the administraiton by the ruling party.
