Jagan: T-issue must be handled in fatherly way
Telangana must not be looked at in a political perspective for the individual benefit of political parties and leaders. “This is a sensitive issue and should be handled like a father would handle a family matter and do justice among the children,” jailed YSR Congress president Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy and his mother, YSR Congress Legislature Party leader Y.S. Vijayalakshmi, said in their letter.
The YSRC leaders said there are two major issues concerning the bifurcation of the state i.e. water and Hyderabad city.
“As you (Centre) have the complete rights on the state as per Article 3 of the Constitution, it is not fair on your part to play with the future of the people of this state. If division is inevitable, what we ask is, it should be done in a manner which is agreeable to all stake holders and no injustice is meted out to anyone, and if you are unable to do this justice, then you should leave the state untouched. Please put yourself in the position of the people in the State and try to visualise why five crore people are agitated. Any untoward decision would lead to our State becoming a man-made desert.”
With regard to Hyderabad city, they said, “Never in the past, in our entire Indian history has the Central government given the state’s capital to people who are wanting others to go, but this injustice is unfortunately the case here, with absolutely no clarity on the welfare and safety of the people and employees who have been working in Hyderabad over these decades. Even now you have a situation wherein the leaders are provoking people, yet no cases are booked against them and if this were to be the plight before the split, then imagine the situation of the people after the split.”
