The TDP-JSP-BJP seat-sharing pact in Andhra Pradesh is now formalised. They share the Lok Sabha seats in the 17-2-6 ratio and the Assembly seats, 144-21-10. To make up for one less LS seat, BJP got four additional Assembly seats, three from JSP’s kitty and one from TDP. Despite joining the alliance late, the BJP became the major beneficiary.
