Political Joint Action Committee Chairman Prof M Kodandaram today said the ruling Congress and the opposition Telugu Desam Party had ‘deceived’ the four crore people of Telangana on the statehood issue.
Speaking after inaugurating a two-wheeler bike rally launched against the suicides of youth, demanding a seperate Telangana state, at Moualali near here, he called upon students and youth not to resort to extreme steps like self-immolation.
Mr Kodandaram said the bike rallies would be held till April 24 demanding introduction of the ‘Telangana Bill: in Parliament and also to highlight the ‘adamant’ stand taken by Congress and TDP on Telangana issue.
The people of Telangana should agitate in unison till the separate Telangana state was formed, he said.
