New Delhi, December 23: The BJP today accused the Centre of making a u-turn on the Telangana issue, saying political parties were not divided on the formation of a separate state.
BJP spokesman Prakash Javedakar said his party is “very clear” on the issue of Telangana and still supports the creation of a separate state.
“The Government has made a u-turn. There is no divide among political parties. My party is not divided and we are very clear that the state of Telangana should be formed,” he said.
He also accused the UPA of announcing that it would initiate steps to form a Telangana state without doing “proper homework.”
“The government did not do proper homework before coming out with the announcement. Now, they are blaming other parties. The announcement will create problems in the country,” he said.
“The Centre is adding fuel to the fire,” he added.
