The Joint Action Committee of political parties spearheading the campaign for separate Telangana on Wednesday hailed the Centre’s decision to hold a meeting of political parties in Delhi but would like to know its “scope and purpose“.
“The decision to hold talks is a step forward. But we would like to know the scope and purpose of the exercise.
We can’t give a final assessment until we know that,” JAC convener Prof. Kodandaram told reporters.
He was reacting to the Union Home Minister P. Chidambaram’s invitation to leaders of 8 recognised parties from Andhra Pradesh in Delhi on Jan 5 to discuss the Telangana imbroglio.
Mr. Kodandaram said the JAC would discuss the Centre’s invitation and take a decision. “But we will continue with our agitation,” he said.
