Left front chairman Biman Bose went to the parade ground on Saturday afternoon to take stock of the preparations. He said: “This will be one of the biggest brigade meetings ever. As far as the estimates we are getting, the entire brigade ground is going to be choc-a-bloc tomorrow.”
The Left Front and the Congress have already finalised the seat-sharing agreement. Talks between the Left and ISF have also been sealed as both the parties have agreed upon 30 seats for the newly-floated political outfit. Sources, however, said that the seat-sharing negotiation between the Congress and the ISF is still underway.
“The coalition is to offer an alternative to the anti-people and communal politics of the Trinamool Congress and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP),” said senior Congress leader Pradip Bhattacharya.
