The Communist Party of India (Marxist) attacked Rahul Gandhi Friday over remarks about Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan, accusing the Congress leader of inadvertently aiding the BJP’s agenda.
CPI(M) publications said Gandhi should stop rhetoric that equates left-led governance with Modi-era policies, warning such comparisons demobilize anti-BJP voters.
Congress defenders argued Gandhi’s comments were misinterpreted and intended to highlight democratic debate within the opposition.
The spat complicates seat-sharing conversations for upcoming polls where both parties once cooperated against a common rival.
Left strategists urged INDIA bloc conveners to mediate before the dispute hardens into public boycotts of joint programs.
