The demand for seperate Telangana is getting louder with each passing day as more individuals joining the agitation. Joint Action Committee gained more power as Telugu Desam Party - TDP also joined JAC . All the rebel leaders of TRS are realising their mistake and are try harder to make place in TRS again by convincing KCR. A Bandh in whole region of Telangana has been called for on 30 th december 2009. Agitation will pick up pace after the new year as many people will face incovinience in celebrating and partying

Hot Spot of telangana agitation currently is the osmania university campus which as been surrounded by huge numbers of police personels in order to retain the students inside the campus. Huge number of students are on hunger strike inside the campus in support of telangana. People who are part of Anti telangana forum have gone into hiding and are avoiding any comments . JAC have also called for Vidyarthi Garjanna meaning ROAR OF STUDENTS in the first week of January where more than 5 lakh students from the entire telangana region are expected to come to Hyderabad.

Even IT professionals , lawyers , doctors , government employees and many other association have joined the telangana agitation and requested government to announce the decision on their stand.

In between this telangana agitation , N D Tiwari has resigned from the post of governer stating helath reasons but actual reason seems to be the alleged sex scandal video aired by Andhra Jyothi channel on tv .


Many people are complaining that many national media , few regional channels and few newspapers are not presenting the actual cause and starting point of the agitation and critising this movement as most of the reporters and owners of many media agencies are from Andhra region . As result KCR announced that new Telangana News Channel will be launched in the month of January 2010.

Telangana Ministers Resign

Telangana movement gained momentum and doesn't seems to go back unless clear time frame for the initiation of formation of Telangana state announced by the government of India. Leaders , students , lawyers , unions almost all peoples group from Telangana region is supporting the formation of Telangana.

Stand maintained by government of India is that a consensus to be reached but the sounds weird as the political leaders from Andhra will never agree to the formation of Telangana. So government should think about the people of Telangana and discrimination that was done to people from this region.

All Telangana leaders from Congress and TRS including KCR gave resignation and formed a Joint Action Committee also known as JAC . These leaders have clearly stated that unless the time frame is announced , this movement cannot be stopped . Lending support to the Telangana movement, workers of Singareni Colleries abstained from their duties. Most of the exams at Osmania University has been postponed till further notice. Citizens of Telangana are planning for non co operation movement to attain statehood for Telangana state.

Another issue boiling up is the case of ND Tiwari - governor of the state , he is accused by andhra jyothi news channel of involvement in a sex scandal and this channel aired the video footage on ABN channel. Many women groups staged dharna infront of raj bhavan but ND tiwari claimed this video as false and doctored and denied any involvement. Congress high command is looking into this matter and is expected to take a decision with regard to this sex scandal by the end of the day.

Currently Telangana Bandh was given a break primarily due to Christmas and Moharram festivities at Hyderabad and to avoid inconvenience to the public.Watch this space for more updates from Telangana region.
