Re: Telangana Monitor
The system in AP is not a unique one. It is the same story with many states across india. All districts do not develop at par with each other. Some prosper and some stay behind. Look at the situation in maharashtra - the place with the financial capital of india, yet has a vibarbha in it's fold. Im ...

Re: Telangana Monitor
@munna The congress is in power in AP at the moment. The focus for the congress is to continue staying in power - planning for the future . The congress is not an amateur party. They will not jeopardise their relationships with their current or future alliances unless they are unavoidable(jagan). Th...

Re: Telangana Monitor
By friend, the parties in t-state won on the basis of a promise that they will deliver t-state. How hard is that for you to understand? Look at the things from the perspective where they actually matter. Whether the events hold any "substance"? Even if the SKC report had said, "create...

Re: Telangana Monitor
Here's my take... T-state will probably form by 2014!! A strong anti-congress wave has swept t-state. Driven by intense emotions. There is no way congress can win back t-state unless it delivers "substance" - not offer promises. Run-up to 2014 The congress's only focus in 2014 will be the ...

Media broadcast restrictions
...the government imposed restrictions on media, no television channel telecast the clashes which continued throughout the day. This helped the police in containing the violence from spreading outside the campus.

Not only is AP going to be divided. Even the borders of telangana-andhra are going to be fortified after the division. Telangana has a history of rising up against its rulers. It guess it takes place every few decades and it always ends in bloodshed. In the nizam days, several villages and districts...

Yes, the benefit is avoiding an inevitable collapse of Pakistan at the hands of India, the cost is a very, very remote chance of nuclear war with India.
