“Efforts for opposition unity have picked up the pace. An opposition coalition will be formed and seat adjustment will be done at the state level,” he said.
“In Kerala, Congress and our party are arch rivals. The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is not in a fight there,” he said.
“The front that is going to be formed, if at all, will always be after the elections,” says CPI(M) leader Sitaram Yechury on the possibility of a united opposition for the 2024 Lok Sabha polls.
