Not ruling out attempt at government formation: Congress
Not ruling out an attempt at government formation by the INDIA bloc, Congress leaders Rahul Gandhi and Mallikarjun Kharge have said a call on reaching out to the Telugu Desam Party and the Janata Dal United, both of which have been former allies of the party, will be taken by the opposition alliance at a meeting tomorrow.
The statement becomes relevant because a margin of only 60 seats separates the NDA and INDIA, which are at 292 and 232 respectively. The BJP has failed to attain a majority on its own and is leading in 240 constituencies – including the 62 it has won – as of 6.10 pm while Chandrababu Naidu’s TDP is at 16 and the JDU is at 12.
