​New Delhi: Taking everyone by surprise, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday said he was not aware of any efforts to constitute a Federal Front to serve as an alternative to the BJP and the Congress. Speaking to a national news channel on Tuesday, Modi said: "I am not aware of Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao is trying to cobble up a Federal Front."
He, however, ridiculed Maha Kumati saying it had bit dust in Telangana Assembly elections and the efforts to form a similar alliances at national level. "AP Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu is indulging in politics of hatred against Telangana. That was the reason why he lost the elections there.
Now, unable to come to grips with reality, he has been saying things that do not make any sense," the PM said. Modi felt hat Maha Kutami, a potpourri of parties, would not work. "I wonder how could parties join hands against one individual? People do not support this kind of politics. You know what has happened in Telangana. There is no need to discuss Maha Kutami here," he said, and asserted that people were with the BJP.
"Those who had been fighting against the Congress all their lives now join hands with it and those who came out of the Congress-led group are going back again to hug the grand old party. "These permutations would not work," he said. On whether the 2019 Lok Sabha elections would be anybody vs Modi, the Prime Minister said: "It is going to be 'Janta' versus 'gathbandhan'. Modi is just a manifestation of public love and blessings."
