Seemandhra leaders intensify efforts to stall Telangana

The leaders from Seemandhra region have intensified their efforts to stall the process of formation of Telangana State.

While some leaders are busy lobbying with the Congress High Command to prevent the bifurcation of Andhra Pradesh, some leaders are meeting the senior officials to get first hand information on the stage of creation of Telangana formation. According to sources, State Minister and Seemandhra Legislators Forum convener S Sailajanath and MLCs Rudraraju Padmaraju and P Venkat Rao on Thursday met the officials of Union Home Ministry here. Although the purpose of their visit was not immediately known, but sources say that they wanted to check whether the Ministry has prepared the Cabinet Note on Telangana.

It may be mentioned that getting the nod of Union Cabinet would be a key milestone in the formation of Telangana as it would immediately lead to formation of Empowered Group of Ministers.
