The Telangana tangle is getting complicated for the Congress Party both in state as well as at the Centre. Goaded by TRS and TJAC, The Telangana region congress leaders have submitted their resignations in a bid to put pressure on the party high command and also the central government to take speedy decision towards carving out a separate Telangana state. Now the resigned Congress leaders are in a fix as neither the Speaker accepted their resignations nor the high command took a forward step in speeding up the separation process.

On the other hand, Telugu Desam Telangana Forum is raising a hue and cry that the region's Congress leaders had struck a deal with the party high command on the resignations issue and TRS is proposing for re-submission of en masse resignations once again. Even within the Congress, some leaders expressed the possibility of Rajya Sabha MP K Keshava Rao and Jana Reddy having agreed for the bail-out during their meeting with Azad last week. With this, the Telangana Congress leaders are not able to decide whether to tag along TRS again or to wait till high command takes a decision pertaining to Telangana issue.


To find a way to ease out from the situation, the ruling party leaders met on Sunday but were divided over their next course of action. Of the 10-odd Telangana Congress MPs and MLAs that met at panchayat raj minister K Jana Reddy's residence in the evening, some advocated submitting the quit letters to the party high command, while another group wanted to give the resignations again to the assembly Speaker's office. However, the sources say, final decision would be taken only after the T Congress steering committee meets Azad in Delhi on Monday.
