Bharatiya Janata Party does not have the strength or the support from the people of Telangana or for that matter in the entire south, barring may be Karnataka and it has no option to join hands with the regional forces if it wants to sustain.
This is the view of Telangana Rashtra Samithi president and chief minister K Chandrasekhar Rao.
He reportedly told the same to Prime Minister Narendra Modi and conveyed to him the message that the BJP would be able to retain its identity in Telangana only if it joins hands with the TRS.
He made it clear to the Prime Minister that if the BJP is willing, the TRS has no objection to join the NDA and strengthen it across the country.
In an informal chat with media persons whom he had invited for lunch in New Delhi, KCR asserted that the chances were grim for the saffron party to strengthen its base Telangana, AP, Kerala and Tamil Nadu.
In Andhra Pradesh, the BJP won’t able to get more than 2 per cent of votes, if it contests independently.
So, the best way for the BJP to survive in the Telugu states is to continue the alliance with the TDP in Andhra and TRS in Telangna. It should stop dreaming of coming to power in Telangana independently, he observed.
