Since almost all the political parties of the state have earlier consented for the state's bifurcation, the congress high command decided to make use of their acceptance for the state's division to get benefited in the next general elections in Telangana region. Finally, CWC has made the historical announcement of Telangana statehood.
However, Union Minister for Tourism, Dr. Chiranjeevi was the first politician to have predicted that Hyderabad would be made as a Union Territory or the second capital of India. He reiterated the same after his meet with Sonia Gandhi recently. As per PTI's report today, the congress high command is seriously thinking about making Hyderabad as Union Territory. Also they are planning to make it as the joint capital of both Seemandhra and Telangana. As such, it is understood that the congress high command is giving utmost importance and honour to Chiranjeevi than all other leaders of the party as they are revealing very important policy matters to Chiranjeevi. However, Congress needs 2/3 majority in parliament to get the UT bill passed.
