Samaikyandhra Student Joint Action Committee has announced that agitation against the bifurcation of the state would be intensified from November 1. Representatives from 13 universities spread across coastal and Rayalaseema regions attended a meeting of the committee here on Tuesday.

Conveners of JAC P. Narasimha Rao and N. Samuel and student convener Ramana announced that on November1, statues of Telugu Talli would be cleansed with milk, highways would be blocked and protest programmes would be held at the offices of Congress and Bharatiya Janata Party offices. On November 5, agitators would lay siege to State and national highways.

Dr. Samuel demanded that Centre should immediately stop the bifurcation process. Central Ministers and MPs should resign from their posts and plunge into the agitation.

Dr. Narasimha Rao said media organisations favouring bifurcation would also be boycotted.

The student leaders decried the actions of the Central government in going ahead with the process of bifurcation unmindful of the agitation.
