BENGALURU - India's opposition parties are seeking ways to mount a strong challenge to the ruling party in the 2024 national polls, with Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M.K. Stalin hosting a major meeting in New Delhi on Monday to find common ground with around 20 opposition leaders who attended online or in person.
The southern leader of Tamil Nadu's ruling Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) party discussed issues of social justice with the other politicians, many of them from strong regional parties across the country.
The parties were invited by DMK think-tank All India Forum for Social Justice.
Some of those who attended said that the meeting was a crucial step towards crafting clear messages to combat the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), which has helmed the Indian central government since 2014 under Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
Among those present at the meeting were Rajasthan Chief Minister and Congress leader Ashok Gehlot, Jharkhand Chief Minister and Jharkhand Mukti Morcha leader Hemant Soren, former Kashmir leader Farooq Abdullah, Uttar Pradesh opposition leader Akhilesh Yadav, Bihar Deputy Chief Minister Tejashwi Yadav, and Communist Party leaders Sitaram Yechury and D. Raja.
Members from New Delhi's ruling Aam Aadmi Party, Kerala's Indian Union Muslim League and Maharashtra's Nationalist Congress Party also attended.
