Telangana Bill: TRS non committal on alliance with Congress in Telangana
- 5 years ago
Complicating further the matters for Congress, smarting under the backlash from Seemandhra leaders over passing of Telangana Bill, the TRS reportedly wants more shares of seats in the Lok Sabha and Assembly elections in Andhra Pradesh as its pre-condition for merger with the party.
According to sources here today, the TRS wants at least half of the 17 Lok Sabha seats and one-third of Assembly seats in the region in the coming elections.
Though this is said to have put Congress in a tight spot, the political scene doesn't look rosy for the TRS either.
For the ruling Congress, which has 12 sitting MPs and 46 MLAs, granting the TRS' wish will be a politically-challenging task at a time when it is hoping to reap maximum dividends from the creation of Telangana state.
