Nara Lokesh says the TDP’s alliance with BJP isn’t new.
Telugu Desam Party general secretary Nara Lokesh has said that the party’s alliance with the BJP will not alienate their Muslim supporters. The BJP, TDP, and Pawan Kalyan’s Jana Sena Party have formed an alliance in Andhra Pradesh to dethrone the YSR Congress Party government led by Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy.
In an exclusive interview with TNM’s editor-in-chief Dhanya Rajendran, Lokesh said that TDP’s alliance with the BJP was not new, and that there was an alliance when Atal Bihari Vajpayee was the Prime Minister.
