All for an “all acceptable candidate”.

The CPM-CPI nuptials may likely to end soon with the Ponnani model of fielding an “ all acceptable candidate”. More intriguingly the all acceptable candidate Randatthani of CPM is not an acceptable candidate for CPI. On the other hand the all acceptable candidate of CPI is an NDF hard core for CPM. What the left comrades are doing is nothing but hoodwinking the people. The long pending desire of Veiyam for CPM-CPI merging is never going materialize in the near future Instead of people of Kerala are fated to view street fight between the comrades of the two factions if they do not give up their adamancy.

The failure to reach a truce between Pinarayi and Veliyam over Ponnani seat is of course a hinder for the Left Front in Kerala. One wonders why these comrades fight for a seat they likely to lose in the Election. The crumple in the alliance between CPM and CPM will be later described as a trick of the communal outfit and so the leaders of the national parties should show wisdom to contain the rise of communal outfits.
