A delegation consisting of police officers and other officials from Andhra Pradesh are expected to meet the Union Home Minister Chidambaram today over the Telangana issue. However, contradictory reports suggest that a formal announcement of a committee for separate statehood for Telangana would be made probably on Saturday.
The Congress core group – Sonia Gandhi, Pm Manmohan Singh, finance minister Pranab Mukherjee, defence minister A K Anthony, home minister Chidambaram and Congress political secretary Ahmed Patel – will meet today.
In other developments, there was talk that Telangana leaders Komatireddy might take back his resignation, to which the Telangana JAC reacted strongly saying those who withdrew resignations wouldn’t be allowed to come out of their houses.
