He said the ministers have been claiming that they would stop the forward movement of division of the state. Now they have to answer the people of the state as to how and why the centre moved forward.

He said this was not the end of it and vowed to intensify the agitation till their goal to keep the state united was achieved.

He said the Congress will have to withdraw the decision just as they did in case of the ordinance on people with criminal background. Ashok Babu said if the government still goes ahead a civil war would break out in the state.
