Congress, TDP, CPI, TJS may join hands for Lok Sabha polls in Telangana despite dismal show of Prajakutami in Assembly polls

Hyderabad: The general mood in the Congress, TDP, CPI and TJS seem to favour fighting the coming Lok Sabha elections together in Telangana like in the Assembly polls last year, a leader of one of the parties said Tuesday. The four parties had formed the “Prajakutami” (People’s Front) to take on the ruling Telangana Rashtra Samiti (TRS) in the 7 December Assembly election.

Leaders of the four parties would meet soon, he said. “We (TJS) met CPI (Communist Party of India) independently, spoke to them at length. Met a few Congress leaders but no concrete ideas or decisions. Generally exchanged ideas on current situation”, Kodandaram said. The Prajakutami came to a cropper in the election to the 119-member Assembly in which the TRS returned to power with 88 seats. The Congress came a distant second with 19 seats, while the TDP got two. The CPI and TJS drew a blank. The BJP, which fought on its own, bagged one seat. “We feel that our campaign strategy was a big failure (in the Assembly election) though we had a good agenda. That’s the reason for our miserable performance”, Kodandaram said.
