Hyderabad is basic contention for GoM on Telangana

The Group of Ministers on Telangana received representations on determination of boundaries of the proposed new state of Telangana and the remaining regions in Andhra Pradesh with reference to the electoral constituencies, judicial and statutory bodies and other administrative units from Union ministers belonging to the Telangana, Rayalaseema and Andhra rigions.

The Union ministers from Rayalaseema have sought that adequate time should be given to the Andhra assembly to consider the bill for bifurcation of the state. They have also stated that the GoM needs to look into legal and administrative measures required to ensure that the state governments of Telangana and Andhra can function efficiently from Hyderabad as the common capital for 10 years.
