“Well, I can only say that the BJP has a clean record of treating its allies with respect and honour. Whether in the ensuing Village Committee elections, in fact, in the assembly elections the existing alliance will continue or not is a prerogative of the BJP central leadership. But, I can say that the BJP has a tradition of respecting the codes of alliance and people who are in alliance with the party”, Bhattacharjee said.
