Deputy Chief Minister and KPCC president D.K. Shivakumar on Tuesday said that many Opposition political parties from across India had unanimously formed the Indian National Developmental Inclusive Alliance (INDIA) to take on the ruling National Democratic Alliance (NDA) and safeguard the country’s democratic institutions.
Mr. Shivakumar chaired a meeting with leaders of the State units of the Aam Aadmi Party, CPI, and CPI(M), All India Forward Bloc, and Nationalist Congress Party, and said the alliance was stitched “to save democracy and the Constitution in the interest of the people of the country.”
Speaking to reporters here, he said according to a survey, the Congress would emerge victorious in 20 Lok Sabha seats in Karnataka. The party won just one seat in 2019.
