Hyderabad, December 10: The Andhra Pradesh government today asserted that there would be no going back on the issue of tabling a resolution in the State Assembly seeking formation of Telangana State.
Briefing newsmen after an emergency meeting of the State cabinet late tonight, chaired by Chief Minister M K Rosaiah, Information Minister J Geeta Reddy said they would abide by the decision of the Congress high command on the Telangana resolution.
However, no date has been fixed for tabling the resolution in the house, she said.
The Chief Minister, meanwhile, asked his cabinet colleagues to prevail upon the MLAs in their respective districts to withdraw their resignations, sources said.
The resignations would show that they were violating the party high command’s directive even after a resolution was adopted in the recent CLP meeting authorising AICC President Sonia Gandhi to take decision on the Telangana statehood demand, Rosaiah reportedly said.
