2019 alliance race TRS President's direct challenge to BJP-Congress

Taking his grand idea of a federal front forward and envisioning a bigger role for himself in national politics, Telangana Chief Minister and TRS President K Chandrasekhar Rao is flying down to Tamil Nadu on April 29 to meet DMK leader MK Stalin in Chennai. In another move towards firming up the nascent front, Samajwadi Party Chief and former CM of Uttar Pradesh Akhilesh Yadav will come down to Hyderabad on may 2 for a meeting with KCR. In the next three months, KCR will practically cover the entire country to talk to satraps of all regional parties to cobble up the federal front and project it as a strong alternative to BJP and congress.
