All eyes are on AP CM Chandrababu Naidu’s visit to Delhi today amid doubts over coming together of various anti-BJP parties at national level because of their differences. Naidu’s immediate goal is to meet Rahul Gandhi, Sharad Pawar and other big leaders and try to convince them on how to remove differences of opinion between anti-Modi parties.
There are many issues confronting Naidu in this effort. In Delhi, there are differences between CM Aravind Kejriwal and BSP leader Mayawati. They have to be reconciled if BJP is to be given a tough time there. In West Bengal, Trinamool Congress chief Mamata and Left parties are rivals for a long time now. Additional efforts have to be made to make these two parties to overcome local issues and be united to fight against the BJP.
Naidu is spending a hectic time throughout the day. He is going there with a clear cut agenda to impress upon the Congress, BSP and other parties to set aside their differences for once with the sole aim of stopping Modi in 2019.
