Akhil mulls third front

By Siddhartha Handique |

Finally Akhil Gogoi has made up his mind to take on Congress and BJP with a third front to fight the assembly polls early next year. Talking to reporters in Kaziranga on Monday, the KMSS-GMS leader said the third front will be emerging as a reliable alternative for the people to get rid of Congress-BJP mis-governance. 

Akhil said that the third front will comprise regional parties, Left parties and the tribal organizations who won’t allow Congress and BJP to retain power. He blamed it all on the ruling Congress for the Sunday’s incident where many people sustained injury at a function organized to distribute thread and blankets among the poor people. “We won’t allow them to befool the people further. BJP is not different,” said Gogoi.

He said that it was high time to form a third front to weed out both Congress and BJP in the upcoming election.
