Hyderabad, January 13 :The chances of getting Telangana state are bright if the Congress-led United Progressive Alliance Government stays at the Centre, stated Minister for Civil Supplies and Legislative Affairs D Sridhar Babu.
Talking to media persons on Wednesday, Mr Sridhar Babu called upon Telangana leaders to prevail upon Centre over the statehood issue.
The Telangana leaders, instead of mounting pressure on the Centre by threatening to submit their resignations to elected posts, can raise the sentiments and aspirations of region to achieve their dream, he said.
The leaders can raise the long-pending demand and injustice suffered during various successive governments with Centre and prevail upon the Seemandhra leaders, Mr Sridhar Babu said.
Reacting on the participation of some Congress leaders in the Jal Deeksha of former Kadapa MP Y S Jaganmohan Reddy violating the High Command diktat, the Minister said the High Command would initiate strong disciplinary action against them soon. (INN)
