There is nothing that the Left opposed Kalam because he is Muslim. Left is not going to support one as per his religion or region. It is the merit that matters. Hamid Ansari's proves that Left can only put up better choice. They have proved it again and again. Insurance privatisation, airport privatisation, EPF rate etc... etc... all these issues are opposed even now by the CPI(M). Any why r U shedding crocodile tears.. BJP also brought down the PF rate.. That is the problem.. By blaming Congress u support BJP and the Congress people will blame BJP. And both do all non-sense. U put the blame on CPM. Given the 44 MPs, CPM is trying to do its best. That is all. Insurance sector was also opened by BJP led NDA. There is nothing mystery.. If CPM withdraws BJP will occupy its place and follow the same anti-people policies.. and additionally the communal politics..
