TRS leader K. T. Rama Rao, while participating in ‘rail roko’ at Moula Ali railway station warned that an indefinite stoppage of trains would be organised if the Centre continued with its stubborn attitude. He demanded introduction of a bill for Telangana formation in Parliament. State BJP president G. Kishan Reddy in Mahbubnagar gave a call for laying a siege to the Secretariat and non-cooperation with elected representatives of the Congress. Hundreds of transit commuters, who were stranded at major railway stations, including Nampally and Secunderabad, turned the places into make-shift shelters. Heavy security was deployed near the railway stations in a bid to prevent any untoward incident and protect the properties.
Meanwhile, the South Central Railway announced restoration of several trains from Sunday night, including Secunderabad-Machilipatnam, Hyderabad-Mumbai express, Hyderabad- Nizamuddin Dakshin Express, Hyderabad-Kolhapur Holiday special, Adilabad-Tirupati Krishna express, Machilipatnam-Secunderabad, Repalle-Secunderabad passenger, Manuguru-Secunderabad Kakatiya Passenger and Manuguru-Dornakal passenger. The passenger reservation system counters were kept open till 8 p.m. following the restoration of trains.
