The CPI(M) this time decided to fight elections in alliance with Left parties. Last time in 2009, the CPI(M) had seat adjustment with the BJD. However, the party candidates did not win.

He said that the proposed non-BJP, non-Congress and secular front would emerge after the general elections.  

'NDA, UPA, United Front and others were formed after the elections. This time also, the proposed front will emerge and form the government at the Centre after the 2014 polls.'

Yechury said Left parties felt that the people were seeking relief from the existing economic policies which had formed two 'Amir Bharat' and 'Garib Bharat'.

'While there were only 30 billionaires in India in 2009, their number in 2014 increased to 53 while people are getting poorer,' the CPI(M) leader said.  

Asked whether Aam Aadmi Party would be part of the non-Congress secular front, Yechury said 'that party is yet to make its stand clear on the alternative economic policies.'
