Hyderabad, December 27: The CPM Politburo demanded the Centre to start consultations to restore peace and normalcy in the State.
The Pol i tburo, which met today in Delhi, alleged that though the Centre has said it would start talks with all parties and civil society, no modalities have been worked out yet as to when and how the talks will proceed.
It expressed deep concern over the situation in the State and felt that the Congress party and the Central Government have thoroughly mishandled the issue.
The Politburo categorically stated that it was the responsibility of the Centre to restore normalcy in the State. The linguistic reorganisation of states constitutes the bedrock of India’s federal polity and that should not be disturbed, the meeting said.
It condemned the wanton destruction of property and attacks on political leaders and appealed to parties and civil society to exercise restraint and work together to restore normalcy.
It felt that the Centre’s move to establish Second States Re-organisation Commission was not necessary.
