The Jana Sena Party (JSP) and the Telugu Desam Party (TDP) have apparently firmed up their joint political action plan, even as the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is yet to make up its mind on alliances for the general elections in 2024.
Though the JSP claims that its alliance with the BJP-led NDA is intact, the saffron party has chosen not to respond to its “pre-election manoeuvres” till date, nor is it inclined to do so till December as its main focus is on the Assembly elections in five States — Chhattisgarh, Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, Telangana and Mizoram, sources in the BJP say.
As per the schedule announced by the Election Commission of India, the five States will go to the polls on different days from November 7 to 30, and counting of votes will be on December 3.
