Congress General Secretary Digvijaya Singh has reiterated that the party is committed to the creation of a separate state of Telangana. Digvijaya Singh, who is also the party in charge for Andhra Pradesh said that the Union Cabinet would handle the nitty-gritty of the state formation.
Meanwhile the pro-Telangana activists have warned the Centre against making a proposal favouring the Union Territory status for Hyderabad. They have made it clear that Telangana minus Hyderabad would not be acceptable to the people.
The Telangana Rashtra Samiti (TRS) chief K Chandrashekhara Rao also time and again made it clear that the issue of Hyderabad is non-negotiable. He has also warned the Centre against making Hyderabad a Union Territory.
According to some TV channels and newspapers, the Centre is keen on making Hyderabad a Union Territory to keep the Seemandhra lobby happy. It has a huge business interest in the city of Nizams.
The original state bifurcation plan proposes Hyderabad as a shared capital of both the states for the next 10 years. The Seemandhra politicians are already proposing the name of Vijayawada, Ongole and Kurnool for the state capital.
The TRS is alleging that the state Congress is trying to delay the creation of Telangana by demanding Union Territory status for Hyderabad.
