Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao has made up his mind to float a new national party on his own.
This is separate from the proposed alternative front against the BJP minus Congress. Hyderabad will be the headquarters for the new party.
A final decision in this regard is expected to be taken at the extended meeting of Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) district Presidents today.
The TRS chief KCR, who had a marathon discussion with state ministers and senior party leaders is understood to have agreed to the proposal of floating Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS).
KCR, the TRS supremo is looking to make a formal announcement of a new party by Dasara. KCR wants to monitor the National party from Hyderabad itself.
Though he held a series of meetings with leaders of various political parties including Shiv Sena, DMK, RJD,AAP, SP and JD (S) during the last few months, no consensus could be reached on forging a front as an alternative to the BJP. All other parties want Congress into the fold, while KCR says it has to be minus Congress.
It is also significant to note that the much-awaited meeting between KCR and West Bengal Chief Minister and Trinamool Congress Chief Mamata Banerjee did not take place. KCR could not have Odisha Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik and Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy on board as they extend support to Narendra Modi government.
The TRS chief repeatedly remarked that the country should come out of the routine political system of fronts.
KCR is likely to present before the nation the successful model of Telangana. Highlighting the tremendous progress made by the state in a short span of eight years, the TRS leader is likely to push for a nationwide debate on why the country with its immense natural and human resources can’t replicate the success of Telangana.
