Telangana is one again on the boil. The latest statement of Union Home Minister P Chidambaram that the central government will hold wide ranging consultations with all the political parties on the issue of Telangana state -- has evoked angry reaction from the leaders of all the parties. Leaders of the ruling Congress, Telangana Rashtra Samiti, Bharatiya Janata Party and Telugu Desam Party have decided to come together to form a Joint Action Committee. Rejecting Chidambaram's statement that there was a lack of political consensus, the TRS, BJP and all other parties have called for a 48-hours strike in Telangana region from Thursday to intensify their fight for Telangana. The BJP has also given a call for strike. TRS President K Chandrasekhara Rao has become the first Telangana MP to quit his seat. He faxed his resignation letter to Lok Sabha Speaker Meira Kumar.
While angry students have once again hit the roads and targeted the buses and other vehicles in Hyderabad, Warangal and other places, at least half a dozen members of legislative assembly from Telangana belonging to Congress, TDP and PRP have announced their resignations. They include E Dayakar Rao and L Ramnna of TDP, Maheshwar Reddy of PRP and Narsa Reddy and couple of other MLAs of Congress. Warangal mayor E Swarna has also resigned from her post. Chandrasekhara Rao said that all the elected representatives from the members of Gram Panchyat to assembly and Parliament will send their resignation on Thursday. Soon after Chidambaram's brief statement in Delhi, Telangana Rashtra Samiti President K Chandrasekhara Rao got together with senior Congress leaders from Telangana former ministers K Jana Reddy and R Damodar Reddy and announced their plans to launch a united agitation from Thursday.
