Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Nara Chandrababu Naidu is likely to hold an all-party meet to discuss the problems due to Andhra Pradesh state bifurcation.
However, the place and the venue for the all-party meeting is expected to be finalised on Tuesday, during the party coordination meeting. As only TDP, YSRCP and BJP parties only have representation in the state Assembly, it is not yet known whether parties such as Janasena, Loksatta, CPI and CPM will be invited for the meet. Sources say that the meeting will take place before 24 February as chief minister and his entire cabinet will get busy with the partnership summit to be held in Visakhapatnam.
Meanwhile, state endowments minister Manikyala Rao of BJP threw down a gauntlet at TDP and said that the state unit of BJP is ready to come out of the alliance. Speaking with media he said that the state unit has already sent a message to its headquarters in Delhi to either let them come out of the alliance in AP or to send Finance Minister Arun Jaitley to the state to explain things Centre has done for AP.
The Opposition YSRCP which has already declared its support for a "No confidence Motion " against Modi government for not fulling promises made to residual AP has said that the party is willing to support TDP as it doesn't have sufficient numbers to do so.
Speaking to reporters here on Monday, Party senior leader Botsa Satyanarayana said, "While our Party is prepared to move the motion, Chandrababu Naidu is differing on the matter and we condemn his remarks that we do not know the procedure of moving the motion," he said.
The YSRCP leader said that the party is interested in attaining Special Category Status to AP, and the idea of moving the no-trust vote was mooted by Pawan Kalyan who is Chandrababu Naidu's partner.
Opposition leader YS Jaganmohan Reddy has already declared that his MPs will resign on 6 April, if the centre fails to fulfil its promises. The TDP has countered the move by saying that its MPs are ready to quit on 5 March.
