From the BBC ! No Kidding!

“The Left collapsed to its worst showing in more than 30 years in its stronghold of West Bengal, and disintegrated in Kerala.”

The politburo of the Communist Party of India (Marxist) meets on Monday with general secretary Prakash Karat under huge pressure.

Congress was elected on a promise of economic recovery and more growth, which could prove a tough task in the global downturn.

Many economic commentators were unconvinced by Mr Singh’s first term but they believe the next administration – freed of leftist influence – may be able to press ahead with key issues such as labour and pension reform.
