The Telangana Political Joint Action Committee (TJAC) convened a meeting today and have fixed a deadline for Congress and TDP parties to come out with their stand on separate Telangana issue by 24 April, 2012.

Speaking in the meeting, TJAC convenor prof. Kodandaram said that if both the parties fail to clear their stand by the deadline, TJAC would take the issue to the public and will teach a fitting lesson to these parties. Anti-propaganda against these parties will be taken up between 10-20 April to to build up people's support for the Telangana cause. Kodandaram  made it very clear that the foremost responsibility of achieving separate state lies on central minister S Jaipal Reddy and former home minister K Jana Reddy, who hail from the Telangana region. He said, "All we want is a '10 districts separate Telangana State', nothing more or nothing less."
