The NDA or the BJP has got nothing to lose with the proposed no-confidence motion of the TDP and YSRC from AP. One can say it will pass off just like a regular protest and cannot make a dent in the NDA numbers.

The NDA has got nothing to worry about the immediate effect. Modi has 274 MPs on his own and it is more than the halfway mark that is 272. So absolutely nothing to worry about the NDA at all. It has got other friends also to support in case it needs to show the strength or prove the strength in the Parliament.
