Binoy Biswam responded to the loss of national party status
“In a short period of time, a national party? Nothing less than a miracle has occurred. To everyone, many congrats. Numerous citizens of the nation have driven us here. They have high expectations of us. People have entrusted us with this enormous duty today. Lord, grant us strength to carry out this duty successfully,” pleaded Arvind Kejriwal. CPI National Secretary Binoy Biswam responded to the loss of national party status by stating, “National recognition is of course crucial from a technical point of view. The working people of the world recognise CPI. It was constructed by the battling people’s blood, sweat, and tears. The party will step up its efforts to promote socialism, democracy, and secularism. The head of the Trinamool Congress, Saugata Roy, stated that the poll panel’s judgement will not have any bearing on the general elections scheduled for next year.
