The TRS would play a role in national politics after the December seven state Assembly elections towards the formation of a "federal front" that enhances the powers of states, party president and caretaker chief minister K Chandrasekhar Rao said Monday.
Both the Congress and the BJP have miserably failed to rise to the expectations of people, he alleged, addressing an election campaign meeting at Khammam.
"...Narendra Modi was given power with lot of hopes, there is nothing great he has done. (He) has not done anything for people," he said.
The two parties, while in power at the Centre, had centralised powers, encroaching on powers of states, he alleged.
"A definite 'federal front' that resists and stops them and enhances powers of states needs to come..I have made some effort for it... But, TRS will do politics, after these polls, that keeps Delhi under check," he said.
Rao, who resumed his election campaign after a gap, said the state government was implementing as many as 411 welfare schemes.
