New Delhi: With the government constituting
an expert group on Telangana issue, Congress on Wednesday appealed to
everyone concerned to cooperate so that governance does not
suffer in troubled Andhra Pradesh.
"Andhra Pradesh is a beautiful and progressive state. It
will be in the best interest of the state if students went to
schools and colleges and focussed on examinations. Everyone
should cooperate," Law Minister M Veerappa Moily, who is in
charge of party affairs in Andhra Pradesh, said.
Noting that rule of law should be encouraged, Moily said
that governance should not suffer and development should not
get hampered. He hoped that the terms of reference of the
group would be decided soon.
His appeal came against the backdrop of frequent bandhs
and violent protests in the state, especially in the Telangana
region, over the issue of separate statehood.
