No Discussion Until Joint Resolution On Telangana- Pranab
As Telangana stands suspended, Pranab Mukherjee ensured while meeting a delegation of Congress MPs from the state’s Andhra and Rayalaseema regions in the Parliament House that the statehood of Telangana will not be discussed in Lok Sabha unless and until Andhra Pradesh passes a resolution keeping into view the wishes and demands of the leaders for another separate state of Telangana.
“He (Mukherjee) assured us that the resolution has to come from the state assembly first. Till then, there cannot be a discussion of the issue in the Lok Sabha,” Congress leader and Andhra Pradesh MP K.S. Rao told the media today.
“We want a clarification as early as possible to prevent division among people of different regions in the state,” Rao said.
