The BJP’s alliance with the Telugu Desam Party (TDP) and the Pawan Kalyan-led Jana Sena Party (JSP) has been okayed in principle by the constituent parties, said TDP Rajya Sabha member K. Ravindra Kumar in New Delhi on Friday. This follows a late-night meeting on Thursday between TDP chief N. Chandrababu Naidu, Mr. Kalyan and BJP president J.P. Nadda as well as Union Home Minister Amit Shah in the Capital. The specifics of the deal are yet to be worked out and disclosed.
“In principle, the BJP, the TDP and the Jana Sena have decided to work together,” said Mr. Kumar.
