Will take appropriate steps at right time: INDIA bloc

New Delhi, NT Bureau: The INDIA bloc on Wednesday said it will take "appropriate steps at the appropriate time" to realise the people's desire not to be ruled by the BJP government, an assertion that was seen as reflecting the alliance's wait and watch approach while keeping its options open.

At a meeting of the INDIA bloc, Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge said the opposition alliance welcomes all parties which share its fundamental commitment to the values enshrined in the Preamble to the Constitution and to its many provisions for economic, social and political justice.
