All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen president Asaduddin Owaisi has become a bosom friend of Telangana Rashtra Samithi president K Chandrasekhar Rao so much so that he is dreaming to see KCR as the next Prime Minister of the country.
Owaisi told a section of media that there was every possibility of a non-BJP, non-Congress front forming the government at the Centre with a regional leader emerging as a Prime Minister. There would be no surprise if the regional leader could be KCR as well.
Owaisi said the upcoming Lok Sabha polls will be an open election and there will be a fight for every single seat of the total 543 constituencies.
“Unlike 2014, there is no Modi wave this time. It is an open election and there will be a fight on every seat, including Hyderabad,” he said.
The MIM supremo said his party would be definitely a part of the non-BJP, non-Congress front led by the TRS chief.
“This front would be necessary to represent India’s political diversity and there are many regional leaders who are much more capable than Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Congress president Rahul Gandhi,” Owaisi added.
He, however, did not share details how the non-BJP, non-Congress front will take shape post polls nor did he disclosed probable prime ministerial candidate who can lead the front, even as he expressed confidence that the regional parties will play a decisive role in the national politics.
Owaisi, referring to a report, said there is a direct fight between the BJP and the Congress in 100 out of the 543 Lok Sabha constituencies. But in over 320 seats, there is a triangular fight between the BJP, the Congress and the regional parties.
“Regional parties will play a key role in national politics. We tried the 280-plus NDA government, we tried 210 government of UPA, What came out of it? I want India’s diversity should be represented. Wait for the results,” he said.
The BJP will not gain much in the five southern states, which comprise 130 Lok Sabha constituencies, except for a few seats in Karnataka. The saffron party is likely to lose its lone seat in Secunderabad this time, Owaisi added.
