KCR meets Jana on T Bill flaws

• Discusses curbs on status of Hyderabad
• Objects to common High Court for both States
• Takes up strategy to be adopted in Assembly

Hyderabad: In an attempt to ensure that all T leaders cutting across party lines adopt a single strategy to see that the Draft T Bill gets the nod of the State Assembly, TRS president K Chandrasekhar Rao called on Panchayat Raj Minister K Jana Reddy at the latter’s residence here on Thursday.

Rao, accompanied by T Harish Rao and other party leaders, discussed the flaws in the T Bill. The issues that figured during the meeting according to TRS leaders included the curbs on the status of Hyderabad and other contentious issues like common High Court for both States after bifurcation and other such issues.

Later, speaking to the media, Jana Reddy said that the meeting did not discuss anything about the merger of TRS with Congress.

He said they had resolved to fight together to ensure that the goal of separate T State was achieved at the earliest.

He said that though the path adopted by TRS and Congress may be different, but the aim was the same. “We want to ensure that statehood is achieved for Telangana at the earliest, and hence we have resolved to fight together till the T

Bill is adopted by Parliament.”

The strategy that needed to be adopted when the T Bill would be debated in the Assembly was discussed. The meeting was also attended by Ministers N Uttam Kumar Reddy and B Saraiah along with Congress MPs Ponnam Prabhakar and Madhu Yashki Goud.
