Namaskaram andi!

Hope you are enjoying your special exclusive from Wishesh. We try to bring out how the public like you & me feel about the present happenings. Again today the all-party-meet is high on the  agenda and unofficially mercury levels in the north block of the Secretariat, must be surging high beyond the boiling point, where the eight parties from the state are meeting.

Each of the party, namely Congress, TDP, YSRCP, BJP, CPI and CPM are sending two leaders each from the either conflicting regions, in addition to TRS and MIM that will also send two each. They are supposed to express the same feeling and would not conflict openly, atleast. The stage is set and let's see what the parties might be feeling from the feelers expressed since the last one week.

What could be the out come at all-party-meet?: The people choice outcome at the all-party-meet, would be to amicably settle the issue without any further delay. Because a delay is sure to induce friction which is not good for the common man and students especially.

Innovate all-party-meet proposal would be to leave it to the people to decide. That is probably the parties with their own slogans try their luck at the electoral in the 2014 general elections and watch the outcome. If the party that grabs the maximum seats in the Telangana region has won with a separatist agenda then do accordingly. But a political morale need be exhibited by each party, which could be done if not an extra penny is spent other than the stipulated amount by the EC by each party.

The third outcome that is most dreaded by the common man is each party playing its cards closed and waiting for the other to announce and the whole time would eventually be wasted. In such a situation the result is 'back to square number one.' However this outcome is most feared as it would result in a political chaos in the state for most to justify their stands.

You never know a possible fourth outcome could as well drop from the sky that is unpredictable and could either better or worsen the situation...all we can right now do is hope for the best and be prepared for the worst.

Congress point of view: Does the party want others to pronounce first and later announce its decision. This is the general feeling expressed by the oppositions. While the party's Seemandhra leaders want a unified Andhra Pradesh, the Telangana Congress leaders think otherwise. However an interesting question posed by senior leader V Hanumantha Rao is worth mentioning. He claimed that by announcing Telangana he could assure that Congress 15-16 seats from the region, on the contrary do the leaders of the other side confirm that they would get atleast twenty five seats if the state is unified, in the coming elections.

Nevertheless, there are two points to note, did the leader mean in alliance with TRS or individually. The second point is why the tall claiming Seemandhra leaders were speechless on the issue.

TDP point of view: TDP has conveniently said that it had announced its decision in 2008 letter sent to the then concerned. But the party never mentioned about it's U-turn on December 11 2009, just a day after the Congress high command had announced about the proposal for the T formation. There is no mention about the issue by the yellow party but for a few criticism by its former ally, TRS. TDP cleverly wants to follow the Congress policy as to wait and then announce.

TRS Point of view: TRS is one party that is confident that this all-party-meet will yield no solutions. They claim that they were well aware of the Congress tactics to conveniently postpone things by giving hopes like mirages. The party is gearing up for the aftermath course of action after the all-party-meet. Probably they are interested in showing their dominance in the area and are not much inclined towards achieving. As per their statements they are well aware of the high commands attitude,  if so why did the party favour the UPA on all those occasions when BJP was waring with the ruling party?

YSR Congress Point of view: This latest off-shoot of Congress is treading carefully on a 'cat-on-the-wall' strategy. Though they claim that they respect the feelings of the T region, they could face dissensions from their Seemandhra siblings, on the issue. However playing judiciously without hurting the sentiments on both the sides and by increasing the sympathy wave that is already in abundance for the party, YSRCP hopes to cruise further with this all-party-meet.

With different strategies on their minds this all-party-meet could pose a bigger problem to Congress and in general to common man if it yields no decisive outcome. Atleast the exercise must be a precedent to more in future and then with hope the turmoil would ease. (Wishesh AarKay)
