TDP to join India alliance! SP makes offer in full Lok Sabha, says "cyclists...":SP leader Dharmendra Yadav said, "What happened in Bihar is in front of everyone. Cycle riders, come here. Anyone who went there has suffered a lot. Both Shinde Sahib and members of Nitish Kumar's party are present at the meeting."

News Topical, Digital Desk : Samajwadi Party MP Dharmendra Yadav launched a scathing attack on the Telugu Desam Party (TDP) and BJP alliance in the Lok Sabha on Wednesday. He advised the TDP to remain in the old alliance, fearing that the farmers of Andhra Pradesh might end up like those of Uttar Pradesh if they were to join the BJP. He also offered the TDP to join the India Alliance.

Dharmendra Yadav said that the entire country's election was fought in the name of the Ram Temple in Ayodhya , and it was broadcast on television for months before and after. The farmers of that same Ayodhya were not even given proper compensation. The TDP should not ally with the BJP and repeat the same thing to the farmers of Andhra Pradesh as happened to the farmers of Uttar Pradesh.

Offer given to TDP

Dharmendra Yadav said, "What happened in Bihar is in front of everyone. Cycle riders, come here. Anyone who went there has suffered a lot. Shinde Sahib and members of Nitish Kumar's party are both present in the meeting." The SP MP even advised the people of Andhra Pradesh to stay away from the BJP. Dharmendra also raised the issue of granting special status to Andhra Pradesh, saying it remains incomplete.

He also referred to statements made by the late Samajwadi Party founder Mulayam Singh Yadav, who disagreed with the creation of smaller states. SP MP Dharmendra said, "Netaji has always opposed the creation of smaller states. In principle, he said that when states become smaller, they have to stand before the central government with a bowl in their hands, and today the situation in Andhra Pradesh is similar."

When TDP broke its alliance with BJP

It should be noted that the TDP has long been demanding special status for Andhra Pradesh. This is why the TDP broke its alliance with the BJP in 2018. The two parties re-aligned in 2024, and since then, the TDP has been vigorously demanding special status. However, the BJP maintains that it will provide special assistance to the state.
