Politburo meet? Present please

New Delhi, July 18: Wary of the media watching the party's every move, CPI-M top boss Prakash Karat has apparently asked West Bengal Chief Minister Buddhadeb Bhattacharya not to miss politburo meets, nor walk out midway, however, innocuous the reason!

Saying a section of the media in Delhi is "creating news", Karat believes they want to portray the CPI-M as a divided house and that West Bengal leaders will demand his blood at a meet in Hyderabad next month.

Still fresh in Karat's mind is the headline, "Buddhadeb skips politburo", when the West Bengal chief minister was absent from the June 5-6 meet. Never mind if Bhattacherjee insists he was busy with official work in his state.

The chief minister did attend the politburo meet this month, but went out for "official work" on the second day. Sure enough came a headline that pained Karat, "Buddhadeb skips politburo". (IANS)
