West Bengal Chief Minister Buddhadeb Bhattacharya will skip the two-day CPI(M) politburo meeting in New Delhi beginning on Friday.
“I am not going. I am staying here,” he told reporters at the state secretariat here.
Bhattacharya skipping the politburo meet follows the drubbing of the ruling Left Front in the civic elections at the hands of Trinamool Congress.
This is the second time Bhattacharya is skipping a politburo meeting after a poll debacle.
Earlier,he had skipped a politburo meeting after the Lok Sabha polls in 2009 where the Left suffered a huge blow in the state at the hands of TC and Congress combine.
