Hyderabad, September 02, 2022 (PPI-OT):After meeting Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar on Wednesday, K. Chandrasekhar Rao plans to visit more states to forge an opposition coalition of local parties to take on the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in the general elections of 2024.

The Telangana CM is getting ready to visit West Bengal to meet Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee. After his visit to West Bengal, he will visit poll-bound BJP-ruled states Gujarat, Karnataka, and Himachal Pradesh, where he will meet with leaders of farmers’ unions and other organisations and showcase the “Telangana model” of welfare programmes.

He may also explore options to field or support independent candidates in the Assembly elections to demand implementation of these schemes in the respective states. Asked if supporting independents would not affect Opposition partners, sources said the CM wanted to consult and convince non-BJP parties to support farmer’s leaders in two or three seats where they are strong.

Assembly elections in Himachal Pradesh are due in November and Gujarat in December and in Karnataka in May next. Rao wants to undertake political activities in these states with a slogan of achieving “BJP mukt Bharat.”

The CM’s visit to Bihar on Wednesday, according to TRS leaders, was a “huge success” and attracted “unusual national attention.” They were upbeat over Nitish Kumar and Bihar Deputy CM Tejashwi Yadav heaping praises on Rao for his welfare schemes and development programmes.
