Amaravati: Centre has invited TDP supremo N Chandrababu Naidu for an all-party meeting to be chaired by Prime Minister Narendra Modi in Delhi on December 5. The meeting will devise strategies for the G-20 summit to be hosted by India next year.
India had already assumed the chair of the G-20 nations at the meeting in Bali, Indonesia. Prime Minister Narendra Modi unveiled the logo for the G-20 summit. The G20 is an intergovernmental forum comprising 19 countries and the European Union (EU). The meeting addressed significant global economic issues, such as international financial stability, climate change mitigation, and sustainable development.
Union parliamentary affairs minister Prahlad Joshi called Naidu over the phone and invited him to be part of the session.
Second meeting for Naidu
This is the second time that the Centre has invited Naidu to attend an all-party meeting. In August, he attended a meeting to discuss `Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsavcelebrations. Naidu shared a dais with Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
TDP broke its ties with BJP and Janasena in the 2019 election and contested independently. Since then, Naidu and Narendra Modi had not seen eye to eye. This invitation from the BJP is seen as a positive sign for the TDP party, which will likely use the opportunity to restore ties with the BJP ahead of the 2024 general election.
