Telangana Agitation Loses Sting

The agitation for separate Telangana state appears to have lost its sting and the agitators seem to be disgusted with the attitude of the leaders.
That is the opinion one would get going by the agitation programmes announced by the Telangana political joint action committee after its steering committee meeting on Thursday.
According to the programme announced by TJAC chairman Prof M Kodandaram, the Telangana people would observe “Telangana self-respect day” on December 9 to recall the announcement of Telangana state formation by home minister P Chidambaram on the same day two years ago.
A Telangana flag would be hoisted at Gun Park in front of the assembly in the morning and there would be candle light programme from evening to midnight.
The Osmania University students would sit on one-day fast on the same day. On December 23, the people would observe Telangana betrayal day to protest the withdrawal of Telangana statement by Chidambaram.
If one were to call these programmes as intensifying the Telangana agitation, then one can say the agitaton has lost its sting. One can easily understand what impact to they have on the Centre’s decision making on the Telangana.
