Finally, the date for crucial CWC meeting is confirmed to July 28th. If, Congress is to be believed, then it would be a historical meeting that decides the fate of Andhra Pradesh state, whether to keep it intact or divide into two as Andhra and Telangana states. Party state political affairs in-charge Digvijay Singh and home minister Sushil Kumar Shinde are asserting that a clear Yes or No will be announced on the state bifurcation after this CWC meeting. AICC has sent messages to all the 41 members of the CWC to attend this crucial meeting without fail.
It is to be observed that although all the political parties in the state are now favoring bifurcation, its own leaders of both regions are crossing swords in the state over bifurcation. Hence, Congress has to face problems from within rather than outside. But, if it is also a part of its game-plan to avert division of the state, then it is likely play its new idea of formally announcing ‘Rayala Telangana’ in its CWC meeting so as it can stir a new controversy and initiate a new hot debate, with which it can start negotiations afresh. But, ultimately it will adversely affect Congress chances of winning in the state in the forthcoming general elections.
