Giving a new twist to his often repeated call for emergence of an anti-BJP and anti-Congress alliance of political parties, TRS president and Telangana Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao on Wednesday advocated an alternative political agenda for the country, in which his party will play a role.
“It is not friendship between parties nor alternative politics, but a political agenda that is the need of the hour to make the country a super power. I will be happy if Hyderabad becomes a platform for the emergence of such an agenda and rid the country of the religious hatred spread by the BJP rule at the Centre,” Mr. Rao said in his opening remarks at the plenary of TRS to mark its twenty-first anniversary celebrations at the Hyderabad International Convention Centre. About 3,000 delegates participated in the programme.
In his over one hour address, Mr. Rao also said there was no need of any political front or realignment of political forces to make someone a Prime Minister. What was required was an agenda that the country could set for itself by framing an integrated agricultural policy and reorienting goals of various sectors, including industry, to meet the aspirants of its vast population.
