We are not beggars,” he said in reply to a question to media.But TDP leaders said that TDP will not react to KCR’s statements until he makes a formal announcement of aborting the alliance. The CPM and CPI were hopeful that matters would be amicably sorted out.As the talks ended inconclusively on Wednesday over seat sharing, the coordination committee of all the parties was to meet on Thursday and the TRS representative was an absentee.
