'Cong-CPI(M) not honest'

At a 'meet-the-leader' programme, BJP Kerala chief said he was hopeful that the politically alert electorate of the state would realise the 'double game' being played out by these two parties.

Accusing the Congress and CPI-M of "bluffing" the people in Kerala, BJP state president PS Sreedharan Pillai on Wednesday said the two parties were having tie-up in 461 of the 543 seats in the country.

Addressing a 'meet-the-leader' programme at the Press Club here, Pillai said he was hopeful that the politically alert electorate of the state would realise the 'double game' being played out by these two parties.

"This is against the basic democratic principles. They are partners outside Kerala. Here, they are fighting against each other," the BJP leader said.

He said Chief Minister AK Antony was under pressure from the IUML against ordering a CBI probe into the Marad massacre.

He said Congress would 'meet its Waterloo' this time suffering large-scale erosion of votes from which the BJP would benefit
