West Bengal Crisis Deepens as Front Loses Majority
After general elections, United Front governments in Raryana and West Bengal faced paralysis from internal bickering and defections. In Calcutta the West Bengal regime suffered a food crisis, while P C Ghosh and 17 others defected, costing the Front its majority. Delhi feared Viet Cong arms link rumors and dismissed Ajay Mukherjee, prompting a new government under Ghost with Congress support. The left mobilized in protest as constitutional experts questioned Mrs. Gandhi’s dismissal powers, raising the prospect of presidential rule or elections with left gains possible.
