Chidambaram also warned the alliance with BJP
Former Union Minister Chidambaram also warned the opposition coalition India regarding the BJP. He said that India Block is fighting against a malignant machinery, which should be fought on all fronts. He said, ‘In my study of my experience and history, the BJP has not been a political party as strong as a strong organized party. It is not just a party, but like a machinery, and there is another machine behind this machine, which controls the Election Commission to the lowest police station in the country and is sometimes capable of occupying them. It is a malignant machinery. ‘
