Coomi Kapoor, the contributing Editor of the Indian Express came up with an editorial about the future of NDA in the name of Expanding Empire.
The Senior Journalist made a sensational revelation saying Nara Lokesh has met Union Home Minister Amit Shah on the same day when Chandrababu Naidu met PM Modi in Delhi.
We all know about the meeting between Chandrababu and Modi. But if Lokesh meeting Amith Shah is true, something is definitely brewing behind the doors.
If the meeting happened and BJP is not in favor of an alliance, it would have planted a leak about the meeting.
“BJP’s vote share in the state is a mere 3-4 percent. But the BJP’s argument is that a TDP tie-up with the ruling party at the Centre would be a tremendous force multiplier,” she wrote.
Quoting some poll surveys, she said, “A BJP alliance would be of little consequence to the TDP in an Assembly election, it would considerably boost the TDP’s vote share in a Parliamentary election”.
The Journalist also wrote the announcement of the alliance would come during the upcoming festival season.
An alliance between TDP and BJP would definitely not make any impact on the election. But that would mean BJP would not help YSR Congress as how it did in the 2019 election.
But then, if BJP is over-ambitious and asks for more seats, it would be counterproductive. And also, Chandrababu should explain to people why he is allying with a party that he opposed the last election.
