Left Ready to Divorce UPA: Bardhan

http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/articleshow/2285794.cms

The left is just being its normal and usual irresponsible self by doing everything it can to create hurdles in the country moving forward. Wether it is the Indo-US nuclear deal, disinvestment in PSUs or the proposed free trade agreement with Israel, it is bent upon reminding the Govt of its outside support; and, thereby, its nuisance value.Even its web site has miserably failed to justify its opposition to the nuclear deal.

By choosing to threaten UPA and the Prime Minister of withdrawal of support, AB Burdhan and D Raja have once again proved the unreliability of the Left. They have already been told point blank by the Prime Minister to go ahead; so why are they trying to justify the delay siting BJP as the reason? Is the Left calculating the political cost to itself of the fall of the UPA govt due it withdrawing support? Perhaps, to quote Karat, 'the time is still not right', for it to create instability in the country.
