Separate Telangana topic makes a comeback
Hyderabad, January 9, 2008
The All India Congress Committee General Secretary Veerappa Moily on Wednesday said that the constitution of second States Reorganization Commission to consider the demand for separate Telangana and Vidarba was under serious consideration of the Centre. An official announcement was likely at any point of time, he said.
He said that the UPA sub committee headed by Pranab Mukharjee held consultations with other parties but a consensus did not emerge. TRS president, K Chandrasekhara Rao who was aware of the process could not convince the UPA partners. Holding aloft the party's manifesto of 2004, he said though the demand for second SRC was trigerred by the sentiments in Telangana and Vidarba, space would be given to the demands from other regions for separate States by duly considering their sentiments.
Moily's announcement came in for sharp criticism form Congress who viewed the SRC as a delaying tactic and parties across the political spectrum. Meanwhile, BJP senior leader M Venkaiah Naidu said the separate Telangana issue should be delinked from the SRC and the Commission's brief confined to other States.
