The Vijayawada-Secunderabad Satavahana Express was held up at Waranagal on Monday with the Telangana supporters squatting in front of the rail engine. Due to the rail-roko programme, the train was delayed by over half-an-hour causing inconvenience to the daily commuters.
The Telangana activists went from compartment to compartment and appealed to all passengers from Vjayawada not to stand as obstacles in the formation of Telangana.
The Railway police pacified the Telangnana supporters and brought the situation under control. The Satavahana Express reached Secunderabad 30 minutes behind schedule.
