TRS alliance partner for 2009 general election?

KCR predicts and I believe to a large extent that there may be a non-Congress & non-BJP government in centre after 2009 elections. Small/Regional Party Coalition (give whatever name you want - third front, UNPA, left-front, united front, etc) might form the 2009 government, Mayawathi ji might be a future PM, BJP might give a outside support if required as they did to Shri.V.P.Singh's National Front Govt.

Hence, it is in best interests of TRS & Telangana to keep a distance from BJP until 2009 elections, If possible with Congress too.

Even if TRS, NTPP, TRS(N), etc. form an alliance, together they can not match to the type of CADRE and ORGANIZATIONAL STRENGTH (in terms of resources & management) Congress Party and TDP possess and face the most expensive election ever(to be) contested in A.P/Telangana. It's politically pragmatic & wise thinking to join hands with Congress Party (or) TDP to achieve our Goal - Separate Telangana State! We should not under-estimate our opponents' strength. Instead, If possible tactfully leverage their strength to achieve our goal. Enemy's enemy is our friend - it's 200%true in Politics.

TRS should not form alliance with BJP before 2009 elections. Instead TRS has to build strategies to create a compulsive political environment (tactfully using weeknesses in Congress & TDP, their need to stay/get in power in State & Centre, etc.) for Congress Party and TDP to beg for alliance and garner considerable MLA & MP seats in 2009 elections. Then play a decisive role in the prospective coalition governments in the State & Centre and untimately achieve the Separate Telangana State, which is a political process and has to pass through State Assembly and Central Parliament. We have no option but to work with parties like Congress and TDP in the State and all other parties in Centre

Dear Friends, one thing we sould not forget is about 50 % of our fellow Telangana voters/people are with Congress Party & TDP and we are not in War with anybody. We are seeking/demanding a Separate Telangana State to have a self-rule of our own within the Indian Union. TRS need to work with Congress Party (or) TDP to get want we want - Separate Telangana State! Hence, it's better to form alliance with TDP if it agrees to the formation of Telangana State and announce the same in the party and public.

I earnestly welcome your comments and suggestions for the betterment of Telangana lives, livelihood, and LEADERSHIP!
