Chief Minister Jaganmohan Reddy’s statement on having three capitals for the state and the recommendations of the G N Rao committee in its favour, is creating tremors in the state.
The Rayalaseema and Uttarandhra regions are celebrating the statement, while a section of people from coastal region are opposing it.
It is not just people and regions, the statement had traumatised even the political parties. The top leaders of TDP and BJP are already divided in support of their regions.
The leadership of the CPI and the CPM too are in trouble. The CPI had opposed the decision while the CPM is yet to take a call. However, the leaders in these parties representing the three regions are divided lot now.
It is just for the Cabinet to take a call on the issue on December 27 to see the political parties really having the big trouble.
The leaders are waiting for the government to make an official statement on the capital issue after discussion in the cabinet meeting.
The TDP leaders, led by former minister Ganta Srinivasa Rao, have welcomed the three capitals decision of Jagan, while another TDP senior leader K E Krishna Murthy backed trifurcation of capital into three.
It is just two days from now for the state to see repolarisation of political forces, thanks to Jagan for his statement on the capital.
