Cong evades reply on alliance with Left in WB polls

New Delhi, Feb 19 (UNI) Congress today evaded a reply on a possible alliance with the Left Parties in the West Bengal elections even as party leaders indicated that the party was in favour of the alliance to strengthen secular forces in the state.
Talking to mediapersons here, AICC spokesperson Abhishek Manu Singhvi, when asked for the party’s response to CPI(M) leader Sitaram Yechury’s statement yesterday that his party was open to an alliance with democratic forces to oust the Trinamool Congress Govenrment in West Bengal , said, ''There are multiple factors that go into deciding on an alliance for an assembly poll. A final decision in this regard will be taken by the top leadership of the party.''
However, sources in the Congress party said the party was in favour of an alliance with the Left parties as it was necessary to keep communal parties like the BJP out of the state and defeat the Trinamool Congress.
