Pragmatic Alliance

In the backdrop of its alliance with the Shiv Sena in Maharashtra, the Congress on Wednesday said there could be more such "pragmatic formations" in other parts of the country as it was imperative for all parties to come together to halt BJP's march.

In a signal that the party was willing to demonstrate greater flexibility in forging opposition unity, the Congress on Saturday proposed a "pragmatic approach for cooperation" with like-minded parties and evolving a common workable programme with them to defeat the ruling BIP government.
