A crucial meeting of the Telugu Desam Party, the Jana Sena Party and the Bharatiya Janata Party is currently underway to discuss seat sharing for the upcoming Andhra Pradesh Assembly elections and Lok Sabha elections.

The meeting is taking place at TDP supremo Chandrababu Naidu’s residence in Undavalli, Vijayawada.

“Under the dynamic and visionary leadership of Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), the Telugu Desam Party (TDP) and the Jana Sena Party (JSP), as well as being committed to the progress of the country and the upliftment of state and people of Andhra Pradesh, have decided to contest the ensuing Lok Sabha and Vidhan Sabha elections together in Andhra Pradesh,” a joint statement released by the TDP BJP and the Jana Sena said.

“Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji has been working tirelessly for the development and progress of the nation for the last 10 years and coming together with the TDP and JSP will help in reaching the aspirations of the people of Andhra Pradesh,” it added.

The statement further said that the TDP and the BJP have a very old relationship.

Highlighting that the seat-sharing will be finalised soon, the release said, “The modalities of seat sharing will be deliberated within a day or two. We hope that the alliance will meet the expectations of the people of Andhra Pradesh with the wholehearted support of the people at large.

The TDP, which was part of the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance until 2018, expressed interest in reviving the alliance after suffering a crushing defeat in the 2019 elections.

The state has 25 Lok Sabhas and 175 Assembly seats.

Elections for Lok Sabha polls are expected to be held in April-May.

The ruling party is eyeing a third term under Prime Minister Narendra Modi and has set a target of winning 370 seats on its own and 400 with allies. (ANI).
