Congress veteran and former Defence Minister A.K. Antony on Tuesday made a call to like-minded political parties, trade unions, and other groups to work together with the Congress to overthrow the BJP in the 2024 Lok Sabha polls adding that no single party may be capable of doing the job on its own.
Inaugurating the platinum jubilee celebrations of the Indian National Trade Union Congress (INTUC) here, Mr. Antony described himself as a ‘‘realist”, observing that the Congress, on its own, would not be able to bring about a change in government in 2024.
Mr. Antony added that political parties were gravely mistaken if they felt they could topple the BJP without the Congress playing a leading role. Such policies would need to change, he said.
