TJAC calls Telangana Bandh

The TJAC, which led the movement for separate statehood to Telangana, urged all sections of people to voluntarily take part in the strike to register their protest.

TJAC chairman M. Kodandaram told reporters that the central government’s move in passing the bill without consent of Telangana is against the federal spirit.

The Left parties have also opposed the passage of Polvaram Bill. The CPI, CPI(M) and Communist Party of India-Marxist Leninist (CPI-ML) have also called for shutdown in Telangana.

Amid protests by MPs from Telangana, the Lok Sabha on Friday passed the Andhra Pradesh Reorganisation (Amendment) Bill 2014 or Polavaram Bill to merge 205 villages under seven mandals of Khammam district of Telangana with Andhra Pradesh.

These villages are likely to be submerged by Polavaram project being built across Godavari river in Andhra Pradesh. The central government’s move is to prevent any inter-state dispute.
