T Bill in February

Telangana Congress MP Madhu Yashki Goud today said Parliament will pass the Telangana Bill in February first week.

Talking to the media here on Saturday, Yashki said the special session of Parliament will approve the Bill. The Centre is firm on its promise of giving statehood to Telangana, he said and accused some political parties of making useless comments for political gains on Article 3 which is used for bifurcating the State.

He alleged that the parties are belittling Ambedkar by demanding that Article 3 must be removed from the Constitution. This is nothing but an atrocity for political gain, he observed. Madhu appealed to all political parties to participate in the debate and give their opinions on the bill. Opposing the idea of voting on the bill being propagated by Chief Minister N Kiran Kumar Reddy and Seemandhra leaders, he said their intention was to stall bifurcation process which is not possible. The Congress leaders should abide by the party high command’s decision with regard to bifurcation.
