Rosaiah hails Chidambaram's statement on Telangana

Press Trust of India, Wednesday December 23, 2009, Hyderabad

Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister K Rosaiah has welcomed Home Minister P Chidambaram's statement on the contentious Telangana statehood issue and said it should not be seen as either a victory or defeat for one region or the other.

Rosaiah called for withdrawal of all forms of agitations for and against Telangana and asked the MPs, MLAs and MLCs, who had resigned either favouring or opposing a new state, to retrace their steps.

He said the state government supported "each letter" of Chidambaram's statement which has done "equal and appropriate justice to people of all regions of Andhra Pradesh," Rosaiah told a press conference at the end of an emergency meeting of the state cabinet late on Wednesday evening.

In remarks that appeared to put Telangana statehood on backburner, Chidambaram said earlier this evening that wide-ranging consultations would be held on the issue as a large number of parties are sharply divided on it.

The statement has been a diplomatic one. But, in my view the government must actually find a solution to this chaos going on in our state. The larger time the govt takes to decide, the more encouraged the other people in the country. If this continues for another month, there is no doubt in saying that this will be a severe damage to Andhra Inc.
