Demanding the official cancellation of Andhra Pradesh Formation Day celebrations in Telangana region, Telangana Joint Action Committee convener Prof. Kodandaram on Wednesday released a poster before media persons at JAC office.
Talking to media persons, Prof. Kodandaram said that the poster was released to observe the formation day as 'Betrayal Day', as the integration of the State failed to fulfill the aspirations of people from Telangana.
Prof. Kodandaram said that the formation day celebrations would provoke the people of Telangana and create law and order problems in the State.
As the Justice B N Srikrishna Commission was releasing its report by Dec 31st, there was no need to organize the formation day celebrations at that juncture, the professor pointed out.
The Telangana ideologue wondered how the government, which had failed to celebrate Telangana Liberation Day on September 17th, was keen to celebrate formation day officially.
Prof. Kodandaram called on Telangana Ministers, MPs and MLAs to boycott the Andhra Pradesh Formation Day celebrations.
The ministers from Telangana had made it clear earlier in the day that they would participate in the formation day celebrations and refused to be cowed down by threats of boycott. The ministers stated that it was a part of the responsibilities of a cabinet minister to participate in the celebrations.
