If the reports coming from the Telugu Desam Party camp are to believed, Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu is likely to end his honeymoon with the Bharatiya Janata Party sooner or later.
Naidu is learnt to have told his Cabinet colleagues a couple of days ago that he was fast losing patience over the indifferent attitude of the Narendra Modi government towards the TDP, while extending a helping hand to the Telangana Rashtra Samithi government in the Telangana.
He asked his Cabinet colleagues to start exposing the tall claims of the BJP leaders that the Centre had given huge funds to AP in the last two years.
“If we continue our friendship with the BJP, we may soon land in a big soup. So, let us start our direct fight with the Centre in securing our due share of funds and grants. The Centre’s indifferent attitude towards the special category status issue has done enough damage to the TDP and the government. We may not immediately come out of the NDA, but we need to put up aggressive posture from now,” he reportedly told the ministers.
On the other hand, the BJP, too, is not keen on continuing friendship with the TDP. While some of its leaders have already been saying that their party would go it alone in the next elections, some others have started preparing the cadre for an independent fight.
The party is apparently not happy with Naidu for ignoring the alliance partner in giving nominated posts and entertaining their requests in taking up various works.
Watch out for further developments on this front!
