Telangana Rashtra Samiti chief K Chandrasekhara Rao today dismissed as anti-Telangana the campaign that there would be a law and order breakdown in the state after December 31 when the Srikrishna Committee is scheduled to submit its report on the demand for state’s bifurcation.
“We will not be carrying swords and parade on the streets after December 31. Our agitation will be non-cooperation in a democratic way,” Rao said, speaking at two meetings organised in connection with some workers of the Telugu Desam joining the TRS.He said that those who were opposing formation of Telangana were resorting to the campaign that there would be destruction and devastation and even as it would be like Yuganth. But our agitation would be peaceful intended to force the Centre to grant statehood to Telangana, he said.He said his party would give time of about 15 days to the Centre to study the recommendations of the Justice BN Srikrishna Committee and then pressure would be exerted on the Centre to introduce a bill in Parliament in February. “We know we will not get Telangana unless we fight for it. That is what we are going to do,” he said.He said that though people had been agitating for Telangana, discrimination was still continuing. “Take for instance, the recent recruitment to DSC-2008. It is being done in one fashion in Andhra and and in a different fashion in Telangana,” he said and expressed his unhappiness over the state government not taking the initiative to amend the Presidential Order to make Hyderabad a part of Zone VI.
