'wait For A Key Announcement': Tdp Teases New Political Equation As Chandrababu Naidu Calls On Rahul Gandhi Today

New Delhi: In a move that indicates the Telugu Desam Party would join the national opposition front forming against the BJP, Andhra Pradesh chief minister N Chandrababu Naidu will meet Congress president Rahul Gandhi in Delhi on Wednesday.

The TDP and Congress have already put aside their rivalry for the Telangana assembly elections to defeat K Chandrashekar Rao’s TRS, and could do the same for the Lok Sabha elections next year, sources said.

In an official statement, the TDP hinted at as much, teasing “the likelihood of a key announcement with regards to the emerging political equations.”

Signaling that Naidu could play a major role in bringing “like-minded” opposition parties together, the party said he would also meet NCP chief Sharad Pawar, Samajwadi Party president Akhilesh Yadav, former BJP leader Yashwant Sinha and National Conference patriarch Farooq Abdullah to impress upon them the dire need to surge ahead politically.
