People have started reacting to the call of alternative forces. The silver lining is that, if people come out to vote without fear, then we will perform much better than the last Lok Sabha elections,” Sarkar told PTI in an interview.  

On post-poll alliances with parties, the senior CPI(M) leader said the Left was open to non-Congress and non-BJP parties, including with Arvind Kejriwal-led Aam Aadmi Party (AAP).

AAP has not made its stand clear on a variety of issues like privatisation and communalism, Sarkar said.
