The Left parties have once again exposed their opportunistic side in politics. The Left, which has a glorious history of political ethics, has decided to back the ruling TRS in the Nagarjunasagar bypoll. Look at the irony! Barely a month ago, the Left Parties opposed TRS and had put up candidates against the ruling party in the Graduate MLC elections. While known Left intellectual Prof Nageshwar was the Left-backed candidate in Hyderabad-Rangareddy-Mahabubnagar constituency, the CPM had its official candidate in Warangal-Khammam-Nalgonda seat. Both had opposed the TRS vehemently. But, just a month later, both the CPI and the CPM have decided to support the very same TRS that they had opposed. More interestingly, the CPI had supported the Congress in 2018 elections and backed Jana Reddy in Nagarjunasagar. The CPM had put up a candidate on Bahujan Left Front ticket and had opposed the TRS. Now, they are with the TRS and are opposing the same Jana Reddy they had supported.
The Left parties said that they were supporting the TRS as they have ideological opposition to the BJP. But, the fact is that the BJP is not even in the electoral race in Nagarjunasagar. The party at best is hoping for a respectable vote and at least a decent third position. Yet, the Left has sided with the TRS.
