All rebels will withdraw, TDP assures Javadekar
HYDERABAD: Faced with the problem of rebel candidates, the TDP assured its electoral alliance partner BJP that all the TDP rebels who have filed nominations from the seats allotted to the saffron party would withdraw.
TDP candidates have filed nominations for Guntakal, Kaikaluru, Kadapa and Santhanutalapadu Assembly seats, which had been allotted to the BJP under the electoral understanding.
Speaking to reporters at NTR Trust Bhavan, the TDP headquarters here, party Rajya Sabha member Sujana Chowdary, along with BJP spokesperson Prakash Javedkar, said his party would see that all TDP leaders who had filed nominations in the seats allotted to the BJP would withdraw.
'We will see that no TDP rebel candidate contests against our alliance partner's nominees,' he said.
Javadekar said both the parties would contest the seats allotted to them and all the rebels would withdraw from the fray.
The senior leader claimed that the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) would win more than 300 seats in the ensuing elections. He expressed confidence that TDP-BJP combine would form the next government in both Andhra Pradesh and Telangana states.
Blaming the Congress for the death of over 1,100 youth in Telangana, Javadekar said the delay caused by Congress in creating Telangana state had resulted in the death of so many youth.
Claiming credit for the formation of Telangana state, Javadekar said it was due to his party's effort that the T-bill was successfully passed in Parliament.
'Without BJP's support, passing of T-bill in both the Houses of Parliament was not possible. The people of Telangana know it and would support us in the ensuing polls,' he said.
Sujana Chowdary said both the alliance partners have launched a 'missed call' campaign to reach out to the people of the state.
'Our aim is to make Modi prime minister and TDP chief N Chandrababu Naidu chief minister of residuary state of Andhra Pradesh, and a backward class leader the chief minister of T state,' he said.
