YSR says no decision on Telangana before polls


At last, Chief Minister Dr Y S Rajasekhara Reddy's word prevailed before AICC president Sonia Gandhi on the crucial Telangana issue.

After meeting Sonia, a jubilant YSR told mediapersons that no decision had been taken on Telangana, since the high command had to hold further consultations with many other sections concerned with the issue. "The Congress high command might take a decision before the next elections," he said.

The Chief Minister also ruled out the possibility of passing a resolution in the State Assembly in favour of Telangana. "When we have left it to the high command, there is no need for the State Assembly to adopt a resolution. We have only discussed the election strategies with the Madam," he said.
