Telangana Rashtra Samithi president and chief minister K Chandrasekhar Rao has been claiming of launching a federal front as an alternative to the Congress and the Bharatiya Janata Party.
But if one were to closely observe his moves, it appears the TRS president’s moves are mainly aimed at isolating the Congress party, thereby indirectly helping the BJP.
At his party’s plenary held on Friday, KCR went on speaking about how the successive ruling parties at the Centre failed to develop the country in the last seven decades, but most of the time, he targeted the Congress party.
His primary objective seems to be not to make it to the national politics with a bang, but prevent the Congress party from coming to power at the Centre.To achieve that, KCR has to wean as many parties as possible away from the Congress, so as to ultimately decimate the United Progressive Alliance.
For the last few months, he has been holding talks with leaders of only pro-Congress parties or the UPA allies – starting with Mamata Banerjee of Trinamul Congress, Hemanth Soren of Jharkhand Mukthi Morcha, Ajit Jogi of Chhattisgarh, Stalin of DMK and Deve Gowda of Janata Dal (Secular).
And in the coming days, he announced that he will hold talks with Akhilesh Yadav of Samajwadi Party, Mayawati of Bahujan Samaj Party, Janata Dal (United) leader Nitish Kumar and Sharad Pawar of Nationalist Congress party.
Interestingly, KCR has not made any attempt to meet NDA allies like Akali Dal and Republican Party of India.
He also declared that he would hold talks with leaders of parties who fell apart from the BJP – like Biju Janata Dal and Telugu Desam Party. But, he did not talk about bringing parties like YSR Congress which is likely to join the BJP bandwagon.
Analysts say KCR could be playing into the hands of Narendra Modi-Amit Shah duo, whose main objective is to make Congress-mukth Bharat.If KCR can isolate Congress by luring all its partners into the so-called federal front, the Congress becomes isolated and cannot come to power on its own.
At the same time, the federal front will also not be able to remain a single piece, because of a common binding thread.Ultimately, it will be help the NDA come back to power again, which works to the advantage of KCR, ultimately!
