HYDERABAD: Telugu Desam president N Chandrbabau Naidu today advised his party MLAs from both Telangana and Andhra against taking impulsive decisions on agitation for Telangana or United Andhra but to watch the steps being taken by the ruling Congress and bring pressure on the ruling party.
Naidu made this suggestion during his separate meetings with party leaders after the scheduled Politburo meeting was postponed in view of the Telangana bandh. The Politburo wanted to discuss the party’s membership drive to be launched in the State by the end of this month.
Naidu also advised his party leaders to involve the Congress in the agitations in both the regions.
He wanted Telangana MLAs to bring pressure on the Congress MLAs to submit their resignations in favour of Telangana. It may be recalled that all the 39 MLAs from Telangana resigned in favour of Telangana while 42 MLAs of the Congress and MIM did not put in their papers. Naidu cautioned party MLAs against pressing for acceptance of their resignations if the Congress MLAs did not submit their resignations.
The Telangana JAC demanded the resignations of all the peoples’ representatives from Telangana.
If the Congress did not abide by the JAC’s decision, the TDP too should not press for the acceptance of their resignations, he said.
The TDP chief advised Andhra MLAs to involve the Congress in the United Andhra struggle.
Though the TDP wanted to float a JAC of Andhra political parties, the Congress decided not to join it. Naidu, therefore, wanted Andhra TDP leaders not to take any hasty step without the involvement of the Congress. According to his strategy, The TDP will expose the Congress both in the two regions.
In Telangana, TDP leaders accuse the ruling party for not keeping its word on creating separate Telangana and in Andhra the local leaders tell people that Chidambaram’s statement fuelled trouble in the State.
Naidu's manipulative politics had produced favourable results in the past. Future can never be extrapolation of past. On T-issue his ambigous and evasive stand may prove very costly for him. WIth this attitude he may fade into history as person non-grata.
