NEW DELHI: Telangana chief minister K Chandrashekhar Rao on Wednesday met his Bihar counterpart Nitish Kumar, deputy CM and RJD leader Tejashwi Prasad Yadav and other senior leaders of the grand alliance in Patna.
Rao’s meeting with Nitish and Tejashwi assumes political significance amidst the ongoing political slugfest between the Grand Alliance and BJP in the state. KCR has been advocating a non-Congress, non-BJP front at the national level as, according to him, both the national parties “failed in developing” the nation.
KCR will also be paying cheques of compensation to family members of soldiers who were killed in the stand-off with Chinese troops in the Galwan Valley in eastern Ladakh.
Earlier on January 11 this year, Tejashwi and three other RJD leaders had met KCR in Hyderabad.
Taking a dig at Nitish Kumar and KCR, BJP leader Sushil Modi said their meeting is a “get-together of two daydreamers”.
“It is a meeting of two daydreamers who have no standing in front of Prime Minister Narendra Modi,” the BJP leader told reporters.
He dubbed the meeting as the “latest comedy show of opposition unity.”
