TDP-Congress Alliance: Babu Wants To Eliminate All Rivals To Lokesh
X
After embracing his arch-rival, TDP boss Chandrababu Naidu has now decided to take the new-found friendship with the Congress to the next level. He is said to have decided to continue to alliance even in Andhra Pradesh.

Chandrababu and Rahul have conducted joint campaign in Telangana for two days. Now, they want to lure the Telugu voters by promising special status to Andhra Pradesh if the Congress comes to power in 2019 at the Centre. 'So, we should sail with the Congress' is what Chandrababu is going to tell his party workers and supporters.

Chandrababu has reportedly decided on allotting some assembly seats to the Congress Party. Rahul Gandh has reportedly told the Congressmen from Andhra Pradesh that they should be ready for sacrifices, a Congress euphemism for asking them to forego their seats.

Even Chandrababu wants this alliance for another reason. He wants to retire some senior politicians within his party by giving their seats to the Congress Party. This will help clear the route for his son Lokesh Babu. With seniors gone, Lokesh will be the unquestioned king in the TDP.

Meanwhile, he is planning to ask his cadre and leaders to drive home the point among the people that the TDP is joining hands with the Congress only for special status to AP. He is trying to use his former friend Revanth Reddy to firm up the alliance with the Congress. He wants Revanth to be friendly with Rahul so that Chandrababu can influence Rahul Gandhi.
