New Delhi: A five-member TDP delegation on Tuesday
met Union Home Minister P Chidambaram and expressed their
solidarity against creation of separate Telangana in Andhra
Pradesh.

The delegation, led by Telugu Desam Party (TDP) Politburo
member and former Union minister K Yerrannaidu, asked the Home
Minister not to take "hasty decision" while devising a roadmap
on resolving the Telangana issue.

include all stake holders from political parties and social
organisations and take their views before announcing an expert
committee on the issue," he said.

On being asked about the outcome of the meeting, the TDP
leader said, "Our meeting was satisfactory. Chidambaram gave a
patient hearing and assured us to do the needful."

While addressing monthly press conference here yesterday,
Chidambaram has said the Committee on Telangana will be
announced this week and there will be no delay in the whole
process related to the mechanism.

The Home Minister has said the government was on the job
of drafting the terms and reference of the Committee and would
announce it.
