Telangana CM K Chandrasekhar Rao is on a whirlwind tour in Southern States to get support from regional parties for his Federal Front. He met Kerala CM Pinarayi Vijayan already. There were reports KCR is going to meet DMK leader Stalin in Chennai. Now, the scene has reversed. DMK leaders are not showing interest to continue previous cordial relations with KCR because of their existing tie-up with the Congress party. KCR and Congress have become sworn enemies.
In the past, Stalin and Kanimozhi held talks with KCR over Federal Front. At that time, DMK had no alliance with Congress. But things have changed dramatically now as Stalin became the first leader to express support for Rahul Gandhi for the PM post. Under such circumstances, Stalin is considering it inappropriate to meet KCR as this may send wrong signals politically. This development is seen as a rude shock to KCR. Most regional parties are seeing Federal Front as just KCR’s gameplan to split anti-Congress parties thereby to help Modi to gain a post-poll advantage.
