NEW DELHI: An overwhelming majority of opposition parties have extended tactical support to the Andhra Pradesh rivals YSR Congress and TDP, who are together pushing for a no-confidence motion against the Modi government over the non-implementation of the promised special category status for the post-bifurcation Andhra Pradesh.

Even Congress — which has no love lost for the YSR Congress and TDP, the two parties that have reduced the Grand Old Party to a corner in its once political ortress of Andhra Pradesh — was more vociferous than others in extending support to the move for a no-confidence motion.
Although the opposition parties are fully aware of the Modi government’s numerical strength in the House, they have readied a three-pronged strategy.
