yderabad, Jan 16: The proposed meeting of ministers, MPs, MLAs and MLCs from Seemandhra in the state capital on Thursday to voice the demand for a united state is likely to generate lot of heat with the protagonists of Telangana state firmly opposing it.
The President of Telangana Jagruthi Kavitha had warned that any attempt to hold the Samaikyandhra meeting in the city would be opposed and prevented by the Telangana agitators. “ Any attempt to hold the meeting was not only a provocative act but also would be treated as an attempt to create hurdles for the creation of a separate Telangana state, she observed,
Kavitha further wondered at the state authorities granting permission for the meeting when no such permission was granted to the students of OU for a meeting in support of Telangana. The Chief Minister should order cancellation of any permission for such meeting besides imposing section 144. If despite the stiff opposition from the Telangana agitators the Samaikyandhra meeting was held, then it would be construed that it was being held at the behest of the Chief Minister, she observed.
Meanwhile Rayapati Sambasiva Rao, Congress MP from Guntur challenged that nobody dare prevent the meeting which would be conducted at any cost. The people from the Seemandhra region have every right hold the meeting to express their point of view for maintaining the unity of the state. Referring to he threat to chase away the Seemandhra leaders if the meeting was held in the city, he said that the people of the region were also capable of replying in the same manner, he challenged.
Four Ministers from the Seemandhra region T.G.Venkatesh, Kasu Krishna Reddy, Viswaroop, Erasu Pratap Reddy, who are in Delhi to meet the central leaders to impress the need to maintain unity of the state, severely condemned the threat from Telangana leaders for the proposed Samaikyandhra meet in Hyderabad. ”When the separatists can have their meeting, why the integrationists cannot hold their own meeting in the state capital, they observed.
Meanwhile TJAC Chairman Prof. Kodandaram described the proposed integrationists meet in the city on Thursday as a sinister move to create hurdles for the formation of Telangana State. Earlier he held discussions with senior Congress leaders K. Jana Reddy and K. Kesava Rao. He said a silent protest (mouna deeksha) would be organized under the aegis of TJAC at Gun Park for two hours between 10-12 noon on Thursday.
