After the major announcements, the I.N.D.I.A alliance held a press conference in Mumbai, where leaders from the member parties collectively emphasized the strength and unity of the Opposition alliance in the run-up to the 2024 parliamentary elections.
Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Aditya Thackeray highlighted the resolutions passed by the I.N.D.I.A alliance. "Today, I.N.D.I.A parties have taken three resolutions. First resolution: We, the I.N.D.I.A parties, hereby resolve to contest the forthcoming Lok Sabha elections together as far as possible. Seat-sharing arrangements in different states will be initiated immediately and concluded at the earliest in a collaborative spirit of give and take. Second resolution: We, the I.N.D.I.A parties, hereby resolve to organize public rallies at the earliest in different parts of the country on issues of public concern and importance. The third resolution: We, the I.N.D.I.A parties, hereby resolve to coordinate our respective communications and media strategies and campaigns on the theme of 'Judega Bharat, Jeetega I.N.D.I.A," said Thackeray.
Exuding confidence in the Opposition alliance, Shiv Sena (UBT) chief Uddhav Thackeray asserted that the I.N.D.I.A bloc is growing stronger with each passing day. He also claimed that the unity among opposition parties is causing apprehension among their rivals. Thackeray added that the I.N.D.I.A parties are resolved to fight against corruption and will not allow 'mitra-parivarvad' (nepotism and cronyism) to persist.
Congress chief Mallikarjun Kharge echoed Thackeray's sentiments, stating, "We all share a common goal to fight against inflation and unemployment."
Key Decisions Made by the INDIA Alliance
One of the pivotal decisions made by the I.N.D.I.A alliance is the formation of a 13-member committee, comprising representatives from various parties, which will serve as the alliance's highest decision-making body. This committee is tasked with immediately initiating discussions on seat sharing. Prominent figures in this committee include Congress' K C Venugopal, NCP leader Sharad Pawar, Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M K Stalin, RJD's Tejashwi Yadav, TMC's Abhishek Banerjee, and Shiv Sena's Sanjay Raut.
Additionally, the coordination panel for the I.N.D.I.A alliance includes Jharkhand Chief Minister Hemant Soren, AAP's Raghav Chadha, Samajwadi Party's Javed Ali Khan, JDU's Lallan Singh, CPI leader D Raja, National Conference leader Omar Abdullah, and PDP's Mehbooba Mufti. These leaders will play a crucial role in streamlining the alliance's efforts.
While the decision on seat sharing was highly anticipated, sources within the alliance have indicated that the seat-sharing arrangements will be finalized by September 30, allowing sufficient time for preparations ahead of the 2024 Lok Sabha elections.
