At a time the TRS government making strategic political moves in Telangana aiming at making opposition parties irrelevant in the new state, the opposition parties are struggling hard to makes their presence left. Leaders of almost all parties come to the conclusion that it would difficult for them to make unilateral move and only an united opposition makes a bigger challenge to Chief Minister K Chandrasekhara Rao.

All the indications are suggesting that non-BJP opposition parties in Telangana are moving towards a united fight in 2019 polls, ignoring their ideological and political differences. The first initiative was taken by CPM state secretary Tammineni Veerabhadram advocating for unity among opposition parties. Veerabhadram, who is on a massive `Mahajana Padayatra’ covering all parts of the state, said that political parties in the state should come together to defeat the TRS government in the interests of the state.

He also announced that his party would enter into alliance with like minded parties and said forming anti-TRS alliance would be done carefully to ensure that the anti-people government is defeated at any cost.

Meanwhile, Telangana TDP working president A. Revanth Reddy, who is also now touring Telangana district as part of his ` Rythu Poru Yatra’ participated in Veerabhadram’s `Mahajana Padayatra’, expressed his party’s solidarity.

On the other hand, leaders of both Congress and TDP are already making joint moves in state assembly. In recent Paleru assembly by polls, without fielding its candidate TDP supported Congress candidate. Barring supporting the Prime Minister P V Narasimha Rao’s candidature in Nandyala Lok Sabha by polls in 1991, it will be the first time that TDP being a party started to root out Congress, has supported a Congress candidate.
