New Delhi, May 11: Left parties today congratulated the people of Andhra Pradesh for their verdict in the elections, saying it was a clear indictment of the policies pursued by the TDP-BJP combine. "What we have been saying for so long has come true. It was a double-incumbency against the opportunistic (TDP-BJP) combine as the people have not only voted against the state government but also against the BJP-led Central government", CPI(M) polit bureau member Sitaram Yechury said.

The central secretariat of the CPI said the verdict was a clear indictment of both the TDP rule as well as the NDA government at the Centre.


"The people of Andhra Pradesh have not just voted for a change of government but for a government which would address their concerns," the CPI said.
