With just a day to go for this Parliament session to end, the UPA government is putting in all efforts to try and push through the Telangana Bill in the Rajya Sabha on Thursday.
The upper house saw ugly scenes over the issue on Wednesday with a TDP MP getting aggressive with the Rajya Sabha Secretary General. Outside hectic negotiations continue while Congress President Sonia Gandhi has asked for a special status for Seemandhra.
With potential ally TDP not happy with Bharatiya Janata Party's conciliatory stand in the Lok Sabha, party leader Venkaiah Naidu and Arun Jaitley pushed for two critical amendments. Both met Prime Minister Manmohan Singh for a crucial meeting and insisted that the unique status of Hyderabad for 10 years as joint capital with law and order under Telangana Governor requires a Constitutional amendment and adequate compensation for Seemandhra be made in the Bill itself.
As negotiations continued, Sonia Gandhi announced a special state status for the Seemandhra region on a day when Kiran Kumar Reddy, opposing bifurcation of the state, resigned as the Andhra Chief Minister, MLA and even a Congress member. "I had told Sonia Gandhi that this is a bad decision. I'm quitting because I can't be party to a decision that is so harmful," Reddy said.
Meanwhile, the bandh call given by YSR Congress chief Jagan Mohan Reddy against bifurcation evoked a partial response in 13 districts of coastal Andhra and Rayalaseema. With political uncertainty looming over the state, heavy deployment of paramilitary forces is likely to continue for the next few weeks.
