A Telangana-centric platform

Addressing reporters in an informal chat in Hyderabad, Kavitha said the party would draw its ideological strength from Telangana's identity and political aspirations.

She made it clear that the outfit would adopt an aggressive opposition role, targeting what she described as policy failures and inconsistencies of the Congress, the BJP and the BRS.
