Live! TMC sneers at Left's attempt to form Third Front

The electoral success of the Trinamool Congress in West Bengal has put a question mark on the very existence of the CPI(M), a key party leader said today and scoffed at the Left party's strategy to cobble together a Third Front before the Lok Sabha elections next year.
"Wherever there is CPI(M) they will spoil everything. They should first try to manage their own party before trying to organise a front," TMC secretary-general Partha Chatterjee said.
He was commenting on a mega rally in New Delhi where Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, Samajwadi Party leader Mulayam Singh Yadav and Left leaders including CPI(M) general secretary Prakash Karat shared a stage fuelling speculation of a Third Front. "They have lost credibility in West Bengal. They have lost relevance," he said.
