Alleging corporate houses are creating favourable atmosphere for BJP leader Narendra Modi, CPI(M) general secretary Prakash Karat on Wednesday said Gujarat Chief Minister’s “development and good-governance” issues suits their interests.

“Amidst growing unemployment, corruption, price rise, and disenchantment due to anti-people policies of the UPA government, corporate houses are making favourable atmosphere for Mr. Modi.

“The truth about his good governance and development is that this suits corporate houses,” Mr. Karat told an election rally here.

To fulfil their dream to capture power at the Centre, the BJP and the RSS are making Uttar Pradesh a “laboratory of communal politics and are dividing people and orchestrating riots”, he said.

“The issue today is not of changing the government. Our objective is to change the policies to the benefit of common man,” Mr. Karat said.
