While every one is down writing YSRC as a corrupt party , the Marxist party known for its upright politics against Chandrababu Naidu is all set to forge alliance with the Jagan party in Andhra Pradesh as a precursor to the formation of third front .In a sign of changing equations, the Communist Party of India (Marxist) has dumped the TDP and walked out of TDP combine since 2009 and is ready to ride with the YSR Congress in the coming elections in the state. The CPM state committee has taken a a decision to sail with the YSR Congress as such a befriending would strengthen the Third Front in the country
The YSR Congress says that It would be a win-win situation for both the parties as the CPM commands more than 5,000 votes in each Assembly constituency and can play a decisive role in about 40 constituencies .CPM sources confirmed that the success of Jagan's maiden public meeting was not accidental but a result of cooperation between the YSR Congress and the CPM in this border district. CPM-YSRCP will also form the winning combination in Seemandhra
Incidentally, the two political parties that staunchly stand for a united state will be contesting in Telangana as well .By aligning with the YSR Congress, the CPM aims to take control of Khammam district where it lost the two Lok Sabha seats and 10 assembly seats to the Congress in the 2009 elections with narrow margin. CPM aims to regain control in Nalgonda , Khammam and Warangal with YSRC support .There is need for a non-Congress and non-BJP government at the Centre. The CPM is a key player in the Third Front and also the only party other than the YSRCP to stand for united Andhra Pradesh, says YSRC
