'No Telangana' says Ghulam Nabi Azad - Is this final statement by Congress High Command?

It looks like the Congress high command has decided against granting separate statehood for Telangana. It was evident from yet another strong assertion from AICC in-charge of Andhra Pradesh affairs Ghulam Nabi Azad.

Even as his comments in China stating that the Telangana state formation is not possible without the consent of the Seemandhra people created flutters in the Telangana region, Azad dropped another bombshell on Tuesday saying that the people of Andhra Pradesh should learn to live together forever.

“You have been living together for decades. And you should learn to live together for centuries,” he said.

Azad further said he would talk to leaders of all the three regions on the Telangana issue.

“Only if there is a consensus among the leaders of all the three regions can we take a decision on state bifurcation issue,” he said.

His statements send the message loud and clear to the Telangana Congress leaders that there is no question of dividing the state under any circumstances. Now, one has to see the response of these leaders, who have softened their stubborn stand and decided to go to New Delhi for talks.
