Telangana Political Joint Action Committee convenor Kodandaram on Saturday warned the state government that the Telangana Rashtra Samithi would launch a ‘non-cooperation movement’ from February 17 if the Centre fails to provide an assurance that it will introduce the Telangana Bill in the Budget Session of Parliament.
Talking to media persons after submitting a memorandum to Chief Minister N Kiran Kumar Reddy at the Camp Office, the JAC convenor said the Telangana leaders would intensify their non-cooperative movement in all Telangana districts.
He called upon employees, students, voluntary agencies, political party leaders, members in JAC and NGOs to participate in the agitation to mount pressure on the Centre.
Prof Kodandaram said the Telangana leaders have given enough time to the Centre. However, the Centre was resorting to delaying tactics by not introducing the Bill even after the submission of Justice Srikrishna Committee Report.
The Telangana protagonists said the Centre should not test the patience of Telangana people at least now and announce the Telangana state formation immediately.
