Chandrababu in a tricky situation

Hyderabad,Dec 10: Within  three  days  after assuring  the  Telangana Rashtra Samiti  chief K Chandrasekhar  Rao  about  his party’s  support   for  a separate Telangana,the TDP  chief is now facing stiff opposition from his own Part y MLAs over the  T-issue.At  this juncture Chandrababu  stands exposed for  the  statement he  made earlier on  the  statehood  of Telangana.  He was under the impression that  Congress would  never take  such a bold step of introducing a resolution on separate Telangana. Taken aback by the turn of events,Chandrababu was caught  on a  sticky wicket. Already  20 MLAs  have submitted their  resignations, and  with  more  resignations  to  follow the  TDP chief is  blaming the  Congress squarely  for the  fiasco.The  TDP chief in his  latest press conference  blamed the Congress for  the present  situation and said  that  the  Centre should  have  taken the  decision  only  after having  a prolonged  debate on this   sensitive issue.

This clearly shows  that  Chandrababu  paid  only lip sympathy for the Telangana issue. On Thursday morning, he called  for  a meeting of  his party MLAs to discuss what strategy the party should adopt if the resolution is passed. Already, several MLAs from Rayalaseema and coastal Andhra opposed the Telangana move.PRP  MLAs  follow  the  suit On the other  hand the Praja Rajyam Party  MLAs  resigned  enmase showing their resentment  against  Chiranjeevi’s decision  to  support the cause  of  Telangana. The  PRP  which is  fighting  for its survival  new  seems  to be almost winding  up  its show.
