Hyderabad, December 26: The Telangana Political Joint Action Committee (JAC) has issued an ultimatum to the Centre asking it to announce a clear cut time-frame for formation of a separate state by Monday evening, failing which an indefinite bandh would be called from December 29.
“We will wait till Monday evening for the Centre’s announcement failing which there will be an indefinite bandh in the entire region from Tuesday,” Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) Chief K Chandrasekhar Rao said.
The JAC has decided to organise protests in all the villages in the region pressing its demand for creation of a separate state within a stipulated time.
Sporadic incidents of violence were reported from Karimnagar and Medak districts of the region even as the bandh call given by JAC was withdrawn.
A group of demonstrators set fire to TDP office in Vemulavada town and attacked an office of the irrigation project officer in Ramgundam mandal.
