Hyderabad: Praja Rajyam Party president K
Chiranjeevi on Sunday met Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister K Rosaiah
and asked him to take steps for maintenance of law and order
in view of on-going protests over the Telangana issue.
"People are feeling insecure. Please consult all
parties concerned and take steps to restore normalcy in the
state," Chiranjeevi said in a memorandum handed over to the
Chief Minister at his residence here.
The PRP, he said, would extend all co-operation for
maintaining peace in the state.
After meeting Rosaiah, he told reporters that 11 of his
18 party MLAs had submitted their resignation on the issue.
Asked whether he would also follow suit, Chiranjeevi
said "as a leader I belong to all regions. Sentiments of
people of all regions are important for me. Hence, I cannot
resign from my post."
The actor-politician blamed the Centre and the state
government for the current political imbroglio.
"Any decision on Telangana should be taken only after
consultations with all concerned," Chiranjeevi said.
