A CURIOUS SIGHT GREETED PEOPLE AT THE JOINT rally in CONGRESS-CPI(M) Baharampur, in Murshidabad district, on April 18.

The Congress and the Left are strange bedfellows, but this is the new political reality in Bengal where Mamata Banerjee's TMC, though part of the INDIA alliance, has decided to contest alone. And Chowdhury, who opposed a seat-sharing deal with the TMC, has been among Mamata's worst critics. Standing beside him was CPI(M) state secretary Mohammed Salim, the alliance candidate from the Murshidabad seat.
