Telangana described as the 29th baby of the 66 year old Mother India is being delayed or on 'HOLD'thanks to TRS Chief KCR's slimy and disturbing acts of not fulfilling the merger conditions . Antony committee is said to be a baby born out of this necessity to work out details with the TRS and its bargaining , say s a source in Raj Bhavan.
Common man’s impression is that the Congress ,desperate and fearing a rapid erosion of its electoral base in the 2014 elections, had given in for the urge to grant statehood to Telengana after it struck deal with the TRS to merge .What is holding the process is the major concern is the chameleon acts of K. Chandrasekhar Rao, chief of TRS not known for his integrity or administrative experience but only manipulations . And his party seems to have thrived on extortion during the past few years, hence the nuanced agitation, which permitted the Congress to sit on the issue for years.
A document traced to Congress High command has made a foregone conclusion that there will be a backlash against the party in the rest of the state, comprising coastal Andhra and Rayalaseema, which account for no fewer than 25 Lok Sabha seats, besides 175 assembly seats. The centre was prepared for it, though state administration appeared caught in the confusion.That the Congress has virtually given up on this larger area, being content with its prospective hold on Telengana, appears to be indicative of the party's low morale rather than any well thought-out strategy. New churning has begun since August first week and the UPA government has grown weary of the Telangana totally now .
