Ministers belonging to Telangana region will take part in the Andhra Pradesh Formation Day celebrations scheduled on November 1st.
Representing the Telangana team of ministers, Home Minister P Sabitha Indra Reddy and Minister For Information Technology Komatireddy Venkata Reddy told media persons at the secretariat on Wednesday that they owe a moral responsibility to the State and were expected to discharge their duties as cabinet ministers.
The ministers stated that they were boycotting the call by Osmania University students' Joint Action Committee (JAC) to observe November 1st as '
Betrayal Day'.
Stating that only the Congress could achieve a separate state for Telangana, the 2 ministers said that the Srikrishna Panel's report was awaited and then the Centre would look into the issue.
The ministers said that the students' leaders threat to block the celebrations was not proper and the government would not tolerate any provocation from the students.
The 2 ministers also rebuffed the students' remarks that they were traitors, and said that KCR himself was a close aide of Lagadapati Rajagopal.
