Dumurjola: In a stinging attack on Left parties, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh has said that their policies are "retrograde", "lack far-sightedness" and contended that their withdrawal of support to the UPA government last year indirectly helped BJP.
Addressing a public meeting here in Howrah district, Singh accused the Left parties of spreading wrong information on Indo-US nuclear deal and termed their withdrawal of support on the issue as a "mistake".
He said the Left has "committed many mistakes. It withdrew support to UPA government on the nuclear deal which indirectly helped the BJP."
Sharing dais with Trinamool Congress chief Mamata Banerjee, the Prime Minister said Left had not changed its thinking with the passage of time. "The CPM's stand is retrograde and they lack farsightedness. They should change their outlook right now."
