A rally for the cause of a separate state of Telangana is being planned by the Joint Action Committee (JAC) tomorrow. The government has not yet given the JAC permission for the activity, and JAC members, while requesting the government for permission, have openly declared that they will go ahead with it anyway.
If it is any consolation, the JAC leaders are giving assurances that the rally will be peaceful, and have requested everyone sympathetic to the Telangana movement to take part. The rally is set to begin from the Arts College, and police are already being deployed at various checkposts. All roads leading to Osmania University will be closed tomorrow.
The Joint Action Committee is a consortium of all supporters, politicians and student groups who are sloganeering for separate statehood for Telangana, and its younger wing has made Osmania University a hotbed of the Telangana activity over the past month.
