Telangana issue: TRS plumps for national media

Staff Reporter

ADILABAD: The Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) will organise a meeting of party leaders with Delhi-based journalists on April 21 in an effort to create awareness to the national media on separate Telangana.

The media would be urged to question Congress president Sonia Gandhi on the delay in according statehood to Telangana, according to TRS leader and Union Minister of State for Rural Development A. Narendra.

At a press conference here on Monday after he offered condolences to bereaved Adilabad MP T. Madhusudan Reddy, Mr. Narendra said a consensus had been arrived on the issue.

Giving a list of parties who offered support to the cause, he said the BJP would support the separate Telangana bill once it was tabled in Parliament.

Asked whether the TRS would rule separate Telangana State, Mr. Narendra said TRS leaders were not after any post.
