as two of them are understood to have decided not to withdraw
their resignations.
Higher Education Minister D Sridhar Babu and
Information Technology Minister Komatireddy Venkata Reddy have
decided not to follow in the footsteps 11 of their colleagues
as they felt there has been ?no concrete outcome? on the
statehood issue, party sources said.
The other ministers, however, denied knowledge about
any such development and state PCC President D Srinivas
claimed all the 13 ministers from the region have withdrawn
their resignation.

Telangana.
"In the morning when we all met at the residence of PCC
president D Srinivas, we had decided to withdraw our
