Telangana tops all issues in the state.
There are a host of problems confronting the people of the composite State of Andhra Pradesh but efforts by Opposition parties to sustain campaigns against corruption in Jalayagnam and other programmes, fee reimbursement, liquor auctions and now fuel price hike all pale against “the issue” that of Statehood for Telangana.
Leaders of all these parties admit in private that it is very difficult to keep the public focused on anything else. A few months ago, as part of a nationwide programme, the TDP and Left parties had organised a protest against price rise at Indira Park but it was disturbed by Telangana activists demanding that TDP chief N Chandrababu Naidu spell out then and there his stance on the formation of Telangana. Since then, the yellow party has not dared take up any other programme.
Earlier, the CPI and CPM had launched a joint campaign but their programmes too fell flat. Nor could they mobilise an adequate number from the State for the “Chalo Parliament” programme in New Delhi in March.
The situation has been no different in respect of the BJP. A few months ago, they undertook to collect nearly 20 lakh signatures in protest against price hike. Party leaders admit that the programme totally failed in the State. And in the last week of April, the BJP national committee organised a “Chalo Parliament”. The State committee had announced that it would mobilise nearly 5000 people from each district. This too proved a big flop.
Interestingly, State leaders who took part in the Delhi programme, also demanded that the Congress-led UPA Government introduce a bill in Parliament for the formation of Telangana State.
And the demonstrations of the PRP have smacked more of tokenism than anything else.

Telangana is and would remain the only issue in samakya Andhra. U.P.A. Govt. has insulted Telanganites by halting the process of creation of Telangana which they themselves announced on the floor of the parliament.No country in the world would act in this manner. More than the insult, it was the psyche of telanganites that was hurt.I do not believe U.P.A. can get away without creating Telangana in near future,lest they may have to face an unprecedented wrath of common man in Telangana.I predict a doomsday for congress and T.D.P. in all subsequent elections if both these parties continue to play with the sentiments of people whose pride is hurt.The other day I was interacting with a journalist from Japan who was a team member of world bank delegation to city. He plainly concluded that opposition to Telangana is nothing but insecurity on the part of S.A.'s about sustaining themselves without the loot and unethical gains being enjoyed for decades- Let Seemaandraites be known that without telangana they will not be allowed to live in peace. Telanganites JAGO -RALLY WITH ONE LEADER- K.C.R. FORGET OTHERS THEY ARE ALL LUMPEN ELEMENTS.

Absolutely, Narender!!
Telangana is only the burning issue that gripped United AP.
Jagan Mohan Reddy pumped few crores to create rifts in Telangana movement.
1) Creating/instigating few SC/ST leaders in Telangana, thats is NOT able to have much disturbance, yet
2) Creating/instigating Telangana Reddy community (with his own caste-affection/nepotism)
3) Already, He has sown weeds (in the form of Student JAC leaders) in khammam student JAC, to dent the unstoppable T-movement.
Whatever the weeds be, they would be driven-away in the T-movement.
May TELANGANA become reality soon.
Jai TELANGANA

Chidambaram on dec 9th gave a statement on behalf of "GOVT OF INDIA" that T formation would be initiated. A word given by the "GOVT OF INDIA" has NOT been kept & not fulfilled. Such a shame on UPA congress central govt….I will never ever in my life again will ever believe any word given by this govt, as they can get away anytime by saying that "the situation has altered"….Shameless bastards…..A word once given must be fulfilled at any cost. That should be the character… There's a saying that "PRAN JAYE PER VACHAN NA JAYE".

Just not Telangana but this time, naak, kaan, aankh anni joodamlo pedutunnaru. the latest is DS says he will develop Nizamabad equal to Kadapa, but small request is to make him win by voting for him in the by election.
Khud naachti hain sabko nachaati hai kursiyaan
Deewana aadmi ko banaati hain kursiyaan
And with this madness people even sell their mothers to grab power. Shame on such people, especially the betrayers.

Kuntodu lesthey manishini kaadu annadanta. It is in no way to point out the differential ability of DS.
Why he didnot make it Cuddapah already?

You have the flair man. Keep it up.
It would have been better, had you not supported the narrow agenda of TRS.
