Ranchi: The Left parties today said their
prediction that the "unholy alliance" between the JMM and the
BJP would break up had come true within four months of the
government formation in Jharkhand.
"When Shibu Soren took oath on December 30 as the head of
an unnamed-coalition, we had said then that it was an unholy
alliance as the mandate was fractured and it will not last,"
CPI(M) central committee member, J S Majumdar said.
CPI`s National Council member, Khagendra Thakur said "no
wonder, the JMM-BJP alliance broke up. It was an unnatural
alliance and was destined for it."
"The Soren government, which has been reduced to a
minority, was an opportunistic alliance," CPI-ML (Liberation)
spokesman J P Minz said.
Taking a dig at Soren, Majumdar said "this time also
Soren need not have to contest a bypoll to enter the
assembly."
The JMM chief was looking for a safe seat to contest a
bypoll to get elected to the state Assembly.
