Communist Party of India (Marxist) politburo member Ashok Dhawale has envisaged the need for a strong non-BJP alliance to take roots in the State of Andhra Pradesh.
Buoyed at the successful launch of a bus yatra from Adoni in Kurnool district on Monday, which is one of the three plying across the State, the party leaders addressed the media on Tuesday to discuss the future course of action.
It was in this context that Mr. Dhawale underlined the need for an ‘I.N.D.I.A.-like’ alliance in the State that would take all non-BJP parties on board to ensure a secular, democratic and progressive future for Andhra Pradesh. He went hammer and tongs at the BJP-led NDA regime at the Centre and the YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) government in the state for “wreaking havoc” on the people, especially the farmers, the working classes and the artisans.
