Telangana CM Chandrasekhara Rao has given hints that his party is not taking part in the massive rally being organised by West Bengal CM Mamata Banerjee in Kolkata on Saturday. The reason for this is that the TRS does not want to share any dais with AP CM Chandrababu Naidu. It is known Naidu is playing a crucial role in forming an anti-BJP front at the national level. KCR has been invited for Mamata Banerjee’s rally because of which his party has to take a decision not to attend.
The TDP leaders say KCR cannot attend the anti-BJP rally in Kolkata just because he is a puppet in the hands of Modi-Shah duo in national politics. Already, KCR is facing criticism from all sections that he is forming the Federal Front only to divide anti-BJP parties thereby spoiling the chances of the Congress party.
The TDP feels that it is just a pretext that KCR is giving as to why he is staying away from the Mamata rally. Over 20 political parties are being represented at the Kolkata rally for which Chandrababu Naidu, DMK leader Stalin, SP leader Akhilesh Yadav and others have reached Kolkata. The Mamata rally is being seen as a show of strength by the anti-BJP parties ahead of the coming general election. Mamata’s party has not taken KCR seriously since they know that TRS has secret understanding with the BJP.
