Hyderabad: Putting fullstop to the speculation, TDP, TJS and Left parties (CPI and CPM) have decided to extend their support to Congress party in the forthcoming Lok Sabha elections to be held on April 11 in Telangana. However, there would be no alliance on the lines of Prajakutami in Assembly elections. Despite not having alliance, the support of these parties will give extra much needed muscle to Congress to fight against TRS, said a political analyst.
The old allies of Prajakutami, which contested in Assembly elections held in December 2018 and failed to make an impact against the ruling Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS), are coming together again to take it on the pink party.
Congress party is contesting in all the 17 Lok Sabha constituencies, while TRS in 16 and AIMIM in Hyderabad MP seat.
TDP is for the first time, since its inception in 1982, not contesting in Telangana. “However, we’re against TRS and BJP. So, we’ll support Congress party in Telangana,” said a senior TDP leader.
Coming to Left parties, CPI and CPM are in seat-sharing agreement for four Lok Sabha constituencies. CPI is contesting from Mahbubabad and Bhongir, while CPM has fielded candidates in Khammam and Nalgonda. Both the Left parties will support Congress in the remaining 13 Lok Sabha constituencies.
