KCR working on strategy to kick TDP out HYDERABAD: When all other political parties are preparing for the next general elections, Telangana Rashtriya Samithi chief K Chandrasekhar Rao seems to be implementing a new strategy to push the Telugu Desam Party back in Telangana.
The TRS chief believes strongly that after the 2014 elections, his party would play a key role in national politics. He also predicts that YSR Congress would emerge as a strong force in Seemandhra.
In this scenario, K Chandrasekhara Rao wants to ensure that Naidu would not to get any political support from national-level political parties. According to sources, the TRS chief has chalked out a new strategy to achieve his goal.
KCR has good relations with the leaders of Congress, BJP, BSP, NSP, CPI, JDU and RLD. TRS leaders feel the allies of both the NDA and the UPA help keep the Telangana statehood demand alive in national politics.
TRS leadership feels that after the 2014 polls, neither the UPA, nor the NDA, or the Left-led third front could form the government at the Centre without the support of TRS.
Due to the good relations of KCR, several leaders like BJP president Rajnath Singh, Union ministers Sharad Pawar and Ajit Singh, and BSP chief Mayawathi were repeatedly expressing support for Telangana, a TRS leader said.
CPI general secretary Suravaram Sudhakar Reddy is also demanding creation of Telangana state, he said.
Another TRS leader said though the TDP chief Naidu has been on a padayatra, he failed to get support from national level political leaders for his walkathon.
'TDP leaders have many times said that the Left and other parties would express their solidarity with Naidu by taking part in the padayatara. But,so far no national level leader has visited Naidu to extend support,' said another TRS leader.
