PC, the Union minister for home hinted at holding an all-party meeting to discuss the Justice Srikrishna Committee’s report after the Assembly elections in five states, and appealed to the people of the state to maintain restraint till the central government resolves the issue.
Chidambaram is learnt to have made the appeal when a delegation of the Telangana Joint Action Committee of Employees, Teachers and Workers met him yesterday. According to the TJAC convener K Swamy Goud, Chidambaram said that his announcement pertaining to Telangana state formation on December 9, 2009 was not an individual statement but was a collective decision of the central government.
The delegation has been meeting all ministers and other stakeholders in New Delhi seeking speedy delivery of separate Telangana state keeping in view the growing differences between the people of Telangana and Rayalaseema-Andhra regions. “We gave a representation to the Union home minister requesting him to abide by the December 9 announcement. We are satisfied with his response and are confident that the Centre will keep its word. If it fails, we will take firm decisions to strengthen the Telangana-movement,” he said.
The delegation will stay in New Delhi for a few days more and are awaiting an appointment with UPA chairperson Sonia Gandhi, prime minister Manmohan Singh, leader of the opposition in the Lok Sabha Sushma Swaraj.
