The TDP decision has not come as any surprise as it has been trying to get close to the BJP in a bid to forge a BJP-Jana Sena Party-TDP poll alliance to fight the 2024 elections against the ruling YSR Congress Party in the state.

The YSRCP president and Chief Minister YS Jaganmohan Reddy already announced the party would attend the function. He had, in fact, tweeted that it would be against democratic spirit to boycott an auspicious function arranged to dedicate the Parliament Bhavan to the nation, and appealed to all political parties to bury the hatchet and attend it.
