Thrissur, Dec 5 (UNI)- Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan on Tuesday said that it is for the Congress to decide whether Rahul Gandhi should fight against BJP or Left in the next general election in the state.
Since the CPI(M) is also part of the INDIA alliance formed to take on BJP, Rahul Gandhi”s contest from Wayanad, amounts to a fight among two partners. Ideally, Rahul should fight against BJP and not CPI (M), he said .
Interacting with media on the second day of the Nava Kerala Sadassu in the district, Vijayan said INDIA alliance is formed to take on BJP in the next general election and made it amply clear that the CPI(M) would be fielding its candidate in Wayanad.
Yesterday, CPI(M) State Secretary M V Govindan had said Rahul Gandhi should focus on combating fascist policies of the BJP rather involving himself in intra-state political rivalries.
Mr Vijayan also said BJP will not be able to make any dent in the elections from Thrissur. In 2019, Rahul Gandhi had won in Wayanad by a margin of more than 4 lakh votes defeating the Left party candidate.
