Is Telangana dead?

Is Congress victory in AP an end to the Telangana statehood?

Personally, I feel the sentiment is still alive and most of people in Telangana want a separate state. The alliance of TRS with TDP irked many voters and they turned away from TRS.

TRS should have ideally aligned with the BJP, which stood by the cause of a separate state.

Should BJP included in Maha-Telangana-Coalition

The announcement of an electoral tie-up between the TDP and the Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) has come as a blow to the BJP, which was trying hard to get the TRS as an electoral ally and a partner in the National Democratic Alliance.

To help the TRS make up its mind, two senior BJP leaders, president Rajnath Singh and prime ministerial candidate L.K. Advani, had announced the party’s commitment to creating a separate Telangana state.

Mr. Singh had also pointed out that the BJP was the “only national party” that had made such a commitment.

This point was emphasised by party spokesperson Prakash Javadekar here on Friday.

Should a national party like BJP included in the maha coalition?

Telangana a Foster Child of Andhra Pradesh

Telangana was never part of Andhra Pradesh. Right from Vizianagaram empire till the Madras presidency. It has its own people, culture and the development agenda





As the curtains come down for the bifurcation, let us wish that Telangana will prosper leaps and bounds as per the ambition of its people

Telangana Rashtra Samiti (TRS) Deadline for Telangana formation

Telangana Rashtra Samiti (TRS) on Wednesday set a deadline till March 6 for a formal commitment on statehood for Telangana by Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, failing which, it said, it would ask four party MPs, 16 MLAs and three MLCs to resign.

The TRS chose March 6 for resignations en masse as the party wanted to utilise the budget sessions of Parliament and Assembly to focus the seriousness of the action. Thereby, the party also wanted to give a 50-day leeway to the UPA Government to take steps, TRS president K. Chandrasekhar Rao told a news conference here.

Mr. Rao said the TRS decided on resignations as a matter of warning to the Government that it would be forcing elections on people which could spell doom to the ruling Congress. Moreover, the move was aimed to mount pressure on the Government to concede the demand during the budget session which was the last opportunity available for it in the current term of Parliament.

Beyond the session, the issue could not be settled due to constraints of time.

He added that the composition of the present Parliament was ideally suited for creation of separate Telangana as over two-thirds of parties supported the demand in writing.
