Hyderabad, May 27: The Telugu Desam Party (TDP) is holding a stock taking meet here of its poor showing in assembly and Lok Sabha elections. The meet comes a day ahead of the party Mahanadu scheduled for tomorrow. TDP members said the meeting was convened essentially to discuss reasons for the party’s washout in the state and national elections. Party president Chandrababu Naidu would be speaking to the candidates who had been fielded in elections to get a better idea of the ground reality.
Steps to rectify past mistakes would be discussed and a programme for their implementation would be drafted. There is a feeling that the IT savvy government lost touch with the grassroots which voted it out.
The party is also discussing its strategy as Opposition and issues that it would raise in the Assembly. At the end of the meeting, a resolution empowering Chandrababu Naidu to revamp the party structure would be passed.
