Earlier on Friday, CPI general secretary D Raja said that the political situation is changing in a way that some parties that were formed by their leaders after leaving Congress are finding it difficult to survive and that there are speculation that they could merge with Congress.
"Sharad Pawar and Mamata Banerjee were in Congress, split and formed their own parties in Maharashtra and West Bengal. Now the political situation is changing in a way that these parties are finding it difficult to survive and move forward independently. There are speculations that they will have to merge with Congress, because NCP split, now TMC split and the Parliamentary group is demanding separate recognition," Raja told ANI.
Regarding the FIR registered against TMC supremo Mamata Banerjee over alleged inflammatory speech, NCP (SP) MP Sule said, "I am not surprised. In a democracy, every person has the right to voice their opinion." (ANI)
