"The objective of the I-N-D-I-A alliance is to make the Constitution of India stronger. We don't want to differentiate between people on the basis of caste, gender or region. I believe that the meeting in Mumbai will be historical," Milind Deora told ANI.
The third meeting of the I-N-D-I-A alliance will be held in Maharashtra's Mumbai on August 31 and September 1.
The meeting will discuss the alliance strategies for the Lok Sabha election and the seat sharing in the states. A new logo of the I-N-D-I-A alliance is also likely to be launched.
A total of 28 parties are likely to participate in the third meeting of the newly formed opposition alliance in Mumbai.
The parties have come together to take on the National Democratic Alliance (NDA), which is led by PM Modi's Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), and prevent it from winning a third straight term at the Centre in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections.
The first meeting of the joint opposition convened in Patna on June 23 and the second meeting was held in Bengaluru on July 17-18. The third meeting is slated to be in Mumbai on August 31-September 1.
The third meeting of the opposition bloc I-N-D-I-A will begin here on Thursday to discuss its strategy to take on the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in the Lok Sabha elections due next year and inclusion of new allies.
Along with talks on strategy and inclusion of new allies, unveiling of the I-N-D-I-A bloc logo and discussion on the common minimum programme (CMP) will be the highlight of the two-day deliberations.
As many as 63 representatives from 28 political parties will attend the meeting of the Indian National Developmental Inclusive Alliance (I-N-D-I-A) on Thursday and Friday at Grand Hyatt Hotel in Mumbai.
The third meeting of the opposition bloc is hosted by the Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA), the three-party alliance of the Congress, the Shiv Sena (UBT) and the NCP led by Sharad Pawar.
The alliance leaders are getting together for the third round of the brainstorming session in Mumbai, after Patna and Bengaluru, to chalk out their common campaign strategy to take on the NDA in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections.
