Buddha likely to give CPM meet miss again
West Bengal chief minister Buddhadeb Bhattacharjee is again expected to give a miss to the crucial meeting convened by the CPI(M) central leadership in the capital beginning here on Wednesday. Owing to his differences with CPI(M) general secretary Prakash Karat, Mr Bhattacharjee has been skipping the CPI(M) meetings repeatedly.
The three-day CPI(M) central committee meet is likely to finalise a draft of the political resolution defining the party’s approach towards the Congress and BJP and finalise a tactical line to be adopted in the upcoming Assembly polls in West Bengal and Kerala. While the CPI(M) top leadership has blamed its West Bengal unit for the party’s declining prospects in the forthcoming Assembly elections in the state, majority of the CPI(M) leaders in West Bengal blamed it on Mr Karat’s move to withdraw support to the UPA government in 2008 on the Nuclear deal issue.
The three-day meeting of its central committee would also prepare a political and organisational report, critically reviewing implementation of the goals set by the 2008 Coimbatore congress of the CPI(M), party sources said. A draft political resolution containing the political and tactical line of the party, prepared by the politburo earlier this month, would be placed before the 87-member central committee for debate and adoption. The resolution would be further debated and finetuned at a meeting of the extended central committee in August in Vijayawada.
