CPI(M), TDP alliance indicates weakening of UPA: Venkaiah

Hyderabad, Jun 16 (UNI) BJP national leader M Venkaiah Naidu today alleged that the alliance between the Communist Party of India CPI (M), coalition partner of the UPA, and the opposition Telugu Desam Party (TDP) was an indication of 'disintegration of UPA'.

Talking to newspersons here, Mr Naidu claimed that the alliance between the TDP and CPM for the ensuing Panchayat elections in Andhra Pradesh would be a serious consequence to the Congress-led UPA Government in future. The Left parties have increased 'road blocks' against the UPA and putting speed breakers by not supporting its policies, he added.

Terming that the UPA had become DPA (Divided Progressive Alliance (DPA), he said the UPA Government was surviving with the 'blind support' of the Left parties at the cost of people in the country.

Stating that the CMP has become as Minimum Common Programme (MCP) and the Congress and Left parties were not concerned about the sufferings of the common people, Mr Naidu said and added that the Left parties were making 'noise' at the Centre after their recent Assembly elections victories in West Bengal and Kerala.
