Jul 30, 2013 09:47 (IST)
Ahmed Patel, the political advisor to Congress president Sonia Gandhi, and Ghulam Nabi Azad spoke to various allies, party leaders from Andhra Pradesh. Chief Minister Kiran Kumar Reddy clarified late last night that he has not resigned.

THE PROCESS FOR FORMATION OF THE NEW STATE

The actual formation of the state is expected to be completed by early next year. The cabinet will share its plans with President Pranab Mukherjee and the Andhra Pradesh legislature will be asked for insights.

The PM will then set up a committee to negotiate consensus between the leaders from the three regions of the state for issues like how to share revenue and water.

Both Houses of Parliament will have to then pass the resolution for the creation of a separate state.
