Students of Osmania University plead in front of a police barricade blocking them from joining an unauthorised ‘Million March’ in Hyderabad - AP.

Congress top brass is virtually burning the mid-night oil to find a solution to the Telangana statehood demand amid threats by party MPs, MLAs and ministers from the region to quit en masse if a decision on the issue is not taken soon.

Party President Sonia Gandhi and Prime Minister Manmohan Singh today took stock of the situation in Andhra Pradesh in a two-hour long meeting of Congress Core Group here.

This was second meeting of the Core Group since yesterday in which the issue was discussed at length, but no final decision could be arrived at.

Its well past the discussion stage and has reached a point-of-no-return, so a final decision is required!

The Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) on Saturday indicated that the agitation for a separate Telangana state would be stepped up in July.

Leaders of the TRS and other pro-Telangana organisations held a meeting here, which was chaired by TRS chief K Chandrasekhar Rao. The participants decided to meet again on June 7 to finalise the agitation programmes, to be taken up next month.

TRS sources said a massive agitation, on the lines of the 'Million March' here in March this year, was being planned.

Hope an amicable solution is found out, without any further loss to the students, businesses, properties, et al!

United, Telangana leaders talk TUF (‘Telangana United Front’)!

Brickbats, Bouquets & Backfeeds are welcome on prmadhura@yahoo.com

Political parties and organisations from Telangana are readying to come under a single umbrella organisation in the form of the ‘Telangana United Front’ in case the Centre does not concede to the demand for separate statehood by the first week of June.

Sources say that people’s representatives of the Congress, the Telugu Desam, the Telangana Rashtra Samiti, the CPI and the BJP, hailing from Telangana will resign their seats and their parties and join the ‘TUF’ to continue the fight for separate statehood if the Centre does not act favourably.

The senior Congress leader and Rajya Sabha member, Mr K. Kesava Rao, is said to be the mastermind behind the move.

Reliable sources say that Mr Rao met T-leaders like Mr K. Chandrasekhar Rao (TRS), Mr Suravaram Sudhakara Reddy (CPI), Mr Nagam Janardhan Reddy (TD), Mr Bandaru Dattatreya and Mr Ch. Vidyasagar Rao (BJP) on the modalities to float ‘TUF’ to fight for the statehood cause.

Discussions were also held with Telangana Lawyers’ Association president, Mr Rajender Reddy, the Telangana Doctors’ Association president and Dr Narasaiah, the Telangana Engineers’ Association president.

This talk of united action has been there for quite sometime but it never materialized due the internecine rivalry among the 'T' leaders;  will this happen now?  If it happens 'Telengana' is bound to happen!
