Hyderabad, Jun 13 (PTI) CPI(M) polit bureau member Sitaram Yechury today hinted at a possible merger of the two Left parties - CPI and CP(M) in the near future.
He, however, said that no time-frame could be given as to how long the process might take.
Yechury was speaking at a 'Meet the Press' organised by the Andhra Pradesh Union of Working Journalists (APUWJ).
"The merger of the two parties, however, desirable it may be, has to undergo a certain process. One way of doing it is through the unification of various mass organisations and joint activities at the lower level, which will percolate to the top," he said.
"I think that is a more sustainable path, rather than the leadership coming together. So that is a process that is on. The parties are working together now at the mass organisation level," Yechury added.
