Sri Krishna Committee to meet

This is the third time the five-member committee will be meeting in the national capital since it was constituted by the Centre last month. It had met once in Hyderabad.

Panel’s Member-Secretary Vinod K Duggal said the committee has received “overwhelming” response from various sections, including individuals and various organisations, on the Telangana statehood issue.
They have appointed people to work for them, so that they can read all the responses that they received by them. “We are planning to appoint some five to six dedicated people to see the responses and format them. We need dedicated people to sort out the overwhelming responses,” Duggal said.

Earlier, many organisations had threatened to boycott the panel, but most of them have now reversed their decision and sent their views to the panel. The committee plans to launch its consultation process with the general public and political parties from the first week of April and has announced that the hearings will be conducted in Hyderabad and other parts of the state.

Asked about the agenda of Thursday’s meeting, Duggal said the meeting will review the progress made by the panel into the issue in the past one month.

The committee had already started researching on various aspects like historical, constitutional, political, legal, economic, social and cultural to give its view on the separate statehood issue. The committee has been mandated to review the developments in the state since its formation and their impact on the progress and development of different regions.
