No BJP-TDP ties in AP: Dattatreya

Union Minister of State for Urban Development Bandaru Dattatreya says there is no alliance between the Bharatiya Janata Party and Telugu Desam Party in Andhra Pradesh though their ties were cordial at the national level.

He said there was many differences between the BJP and the TDP. The BJP, he said, would oppose the TDP government's 'anti-people' policies. ''The question of alliance depends on mutual trust.''

He justified his party's support to TDP candidate Ganti Mohana Chandra Balayogi for the Lok Sabha Speaker's post, saying "after the election there are compulsions for both the parties to support each other".
