United we fall, divided we stand is T anthem: Well over the years India a land with diverse cultures had emphasized on the tag line that 'Unity in Diversity.' But the situation in Andhra Pradesh is slightly different, the state is reeling under acute pressure for a division which seems to be at the moment on the agenda of the central government, as well. On one side the Telangana leaders are fighting for carving out a separate state from the unified Andhra Pradesh. On the other side, we have Seemandhra leaders struggling to keep the state united.

To the common man does a division make any difference, not much only his mobile bills might increase as he will be in roaming. Are our brethren from either sides have not been working in other states and countries too. Nevertheless is is just the power hungry tribe that is gambling with the sentiments. Every one wants his way and wants to take credit at the cost of the common loss. While the Seemandhra 'Naayaks' want to safe guard their interests, which are in abundant, in the T region. The T 'Naiks' want to usurp the well developed real estate.

On the whole, every one has his own goal but the irony is that in the name of agitation they ruin their own assets, which would push the region back by many years in development. Whether Andhra or T, India is one and we are all Indians, that is the permanent fact.

Seemandhra leaders meet in Hyd: After the centre showing interests to divide the state, worried Seemandhra leaders who failed to convince the high command to refrain from separate the state, are holding a meeting in Hyderabad to chart their plans to oppose the move. However they are opposed by Their T counterparts who do not want them to hold meetings in Hyderabad.

Till today Hyderabad is the capital of the unified state and the Leaders from other side do have rights to hold a meeting in any part. If it is a four-walled meet, it is the discretion of the participants to voice their own opinion on any issue under the sun, at least that is what we call as democracy.

We want Hyd State: With Congress sending feelers for T formation, another issue seems to rock the region. Many leaders of the state capital want the GHMC area to be demarcated as a separate state. They expressed that Hyderabad was a place of living for many migrants of various states across the nation and hence cosmopolitan in nature. By making it separate entity all their interests would be safe guarded. This opinion had been supported by many industrial bigwigs too, and seems to be an approved thought lingering in the minds of the leaders of the either sides, as well.

However the the T JAC Supremo Prof Kodanadaram was vehemently opposing any such move and said that there is no compromise in Telanagana with capital as Hyderabad. So after the T issue, Hyderabad row is sure to rock the state for some time since January 28, when the Centre would announce its decision on the precarious issue. On the whole, this T solution is surely not going to bring respite to Hyderabadis as the next one is brewing already.
