Hyderabad: Aiming to garner support of the national parties for the smooth passage of the Telangana Bill in Parliament, the Telangana Joint Action Committee (TJAC) is likely to conduct a workshop in New Delhi on February 7.

Key leaders of various national parties will be invited for this workshop. TJAC will impress upon them the need for formation of Telangana State besides briefing the parliamentarians about certain amendments to be made in the final draft Bill to protect the interests of the people of the region.

Apart from New Delhi tour, TJAC members have also decided to attend ‘Sammakka-Saralamma Jatara’ in Medaram (Warangal district) on February 2 to offer special prayers to the deity. These decisions were taken at the TJAC steering committee meeting held at its office here on Tuesday.

Kodand flays CM, JP

Reacting sharply to the decision of Chief Minister Kiran Kumar Reddy to seek more time for debating the Telangana Bill, TJAC chairman Prof Kodandaram charged the former with resorting to anti-constitutional steps to stall the State bifurcation process. Kiran Reddy had created obstructions to the debate by submitting a unilateral notice to the Speaker, and now

he was seeking extension of deadline, the JAC chairman fumed. He also lashed out at Lok Satta chief Jayaprakash Narayan for his demand to take up voting in the House. According toKodandaram, the President had asked for expression of views of members and not the House. He sought to know whether Jayaprakash Narayan was not aware of the rules or was he acting as though he had no idea of constitutional provisions.
