Demanding the introduction of a Bill on a separate Telangana in Parliament, Telangana Telugu Desam Party Forum leaders will stage a dharna in 21 mandal headquarters across the Telangana region, stated Forum Convener Nagam Janardhan Reddy.
The dharna is being planned for Oct 25, and will also take place in front of AICC president Sonia Gandhi's residence.
He said Forum leaders will leave Hyderabad on October 23 and stage the dharna if the AICC president fails to give them an appointment for submitting a memorandum on a separate Telangana state.
The senior TDP leader stated that the TTDPF leaders have already booked one second class A/C coach, three 3-tier AC coaches and 14 second class coaches after paying around Rs. 25 lakh in advance to the Railways.
About 1,500 party leaders and activists will turn up for staging dharna in Delhi, he stated.
Nagam said the Telangana leaders have asked TDP president N Chandrababu Naidu to flag off their train yatra from the Secunderabad railway station.
The TDP activists have planned agitations across Telangana from October 27, after their return, the TDP leader added.
