The Telangana Rashtra Samithi and BJP Thursday attacked Telugu Desam Party over party chief N Chandrababu Naidu's meeting with Congress president Rahul Gandhi in Delhi, saying the Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister was going against the principles on which TDP was founded.
Congress and TDP have come together for the December 7 Assembly elections only to trouble TRS and its president K Chandrasekhar Rao, TRS MP B Vinold Kumar claimed.
"Chandrababu Naidu's behaviour is totally against what N T Rama Rao had spoken then and the basic principles for which that party was started," he told reporters here.
Congress and TDP are part of the "grand alliance" for the elections. The alliance also comprises CPI and Telangana Jana Samiti (TJS).
Criticising Naidu's meeting with Gandhi, BJP's Telangana unit president K Laxman alleged in Delhi that the TDP president has "mortaged the self-respect of Telugu people."
