In 2009 the Government of India announced process of
formation of Telangana state. After Members of Legislative
Assembly & Council from Coastal Andhra and Rayalaseema
regions had submitted resignations in response to the
announcement, as well as violent protests raised in those
regions immediately after the announcement, the decision to
form to new state was put on hold on 23 December 2009.
Since Telangana was merged with Andhra state to form
Andhra Pradesh state in 1956, there have been several
agitations in Telangana to invalidate the merger and to form a
Telangana state. Finally it was formed in 2014.

that was formerly part of Hyderabad State ruled by the
Nizam.
Andhra Pradesh State has three main cultural regions:

The Telangana region has an area of 114,840 square
kilometres (44,340 sq mi), and a population of 35,286,757
(2011 census) which is 41.6% of Andhra Pradesh state
population. The Andhra State came into effect from
October 1, 1953 with Kurnool as its capital city.

Grievances of Telangana proponents
Proponents of a separate Telangana state cite
perceived injustices in the distribution of water, budget
allocations, and jobs.
Within the state of Andhra Pradesh, 68.5% of the
catchment area of the Krishna River and 69% of the
catchment area of the Godavari River are in theTelangana region.
Telangana supporters state that the benefits of
irrigation through the canal system under major
irrigation projects is accruing substantially, 74.25%, tothe Coastal Andhra region, while the share to
Telangana is 18.20%. The remaining 7.55% goes to
the Rayalaseema region.

According to the Backward Regions Grant Fund
2009 –10, of the thirteen backward districts located in
Andhra Pradesh: nine (all except Hyderabad) are from
Telangana.
A Telangana Rebellion happened earlier, that was a
peasant revolt supported by the Communists. It took
place in the former princely state of Hyderabad
between 1946 and 1951. It was led by the Communist
Party of India.
The revolt began in the Nalgonda district against the
feudal lords of Reddy and Velama castes. 9
7/21/2019 Know Telangana State
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/know-telangana-state 11/39
It quickly spread to the Warangal and Bidar districts.
Peasant farmers and labourers revolted against the
local feudal landlords ( jagirdars and deshmukhs) and
later against the King of Hyderabad State.
The violent phase of the movement ended after the
central government sent in the army.
Starting in 1951, the CPI shifted to a more moderate
strategy of seeking to bring communism to India
within the framework of Indian democracy

13 seats to Parliament.
• In 2004 people of both Telangana and Andhra voted

Telangana is on an elevated plateau. Godavari and
Krishna, flow through the area, but most of the land is
arid.
Northern Telangana gets between 900 to 1500mm
rainfall per year from the southwest monsoons.
Various soil types abound here, including chalks, red
sandy soils, dubbas, deep red loamy soils, and very
deep b.c. soils that facilitate planting mangoes, oranges
and flowers.

Southern Telangana gets 700 to 900mm rainfall per
year, also from the southwest monsoons.
The red earths with loamy sub-soils (chalkas) in
these parts facilitate planting oranges, mangoes,
vegetables, sapotas and flowers.
From Godavari out of 1430 TMC allocated,
Telangana is entitled to get 760 TMC whereas the
actual allocation is just 200 TMC. Godavari waters
irrigate over 12 lakh acres in Andhra while it is only 4
lakh acres in Telangana.

About 45% of the forest area in Andhra Pradesh state
is located in Telangana, spread across five districts.
Around 20% of the coal deposits of India are found in
Telangana. The Singareni Collieries Company
excavates coal for industrial purposes and for fuelling
power generating plants. The power generated here
supplies the entire south India. There are limestone
deposits in the area, which are exploited by cement
factories. Telangana has deposits of bauxite and
mica.

About 76% of the population of Telangana speak
Telugu, 12% speak Urdu, and 12% speak other
languages. Before 1948, Urdu was the official
language of Hyderabad State, and due to a lack of
Telugu-language educational institutions, Urdu was
the language of the educated elite of Telangana.
After 1948, once Hyderabad State joined the new
Republic of India, Telugu became the language of
government, and as Telugu was introduced as the
medium of instruction in schools and colleges, the
use of Urdu among non-Muslims decreased.

Seemandhra (Coastal Andhra and Rayalseema
combined which is what will be left after
Telangana is formed) is now benefited from
Telangana, which is rich in industry and, more
primarily from a southern perspective, water.Of the three regions of Andhra Pradesh,
Telangana has the largest area (114,800 square
kilometres). The Deccan plateau has two majorrivers - the Godavari and Krishna.
20

Of this, Telangana alone has some 69 per cent of the
Krishna river and 79 per cent of the Godavari
catchment area. Besides, Telangana is also drained
by minor rivers such as Manair, Bhima, Dindi,
Kinnerasani, Manjeera, Munneru, Moosi, Penganga,
Praanahita, Peddavagu and Taliperu. Hope was,
once Telangana and Seemandhra are born, water
disputes would have to be faced and solved as
more water would be utilized to develop regions of
Telangana and the other region will receive far less
a share.

Telangana and Andhra were not bonded together
as a State.
People of Telangana had for decades, entrenched
feeling that following the ―forced merger‖, they
were exploited. With their resources used, they were discriminated
against when it came to education, employment
and irrigation facilities.
The Andhra Pradesh bifurcation issue was not
purely political.

Andhra evolved as a mosaic of business-minded
entrepreneurial communities who required Hyderabad
for a stable political capital and the resources of
Telangana for their sustenance.
Eventually, Telangana was used as an area and itspeople used as human labour for the Andhra
entrepreneurs‘ advantage and prosperity‖. It thus
became a State of peasant entrepreneurs withthe support of the traditional elite in the interest of
advancing their agrarian and business interests in
combination with political power.

Union Home Minister Sushilkumar Shinde on Friday
said a 10-member Group of Ministers (GoM) would give
its report within six weeks comprising recommendations
on various crucial issues, including the boundary of the
new State, so that the bill on the new State could be
tabled in Parliament in the winter session (2013-14).
It would make recommendations on the boundaries of
Telangana, division of bureaucracy and sharing of
assets and resources, including river water and
irrigation projects.

Since the Cabinet had recommended that ―
the city of Hyderabad will function as thecommon capital for both the States for a
period of 10 years, the GoM would have to
look into the legal and administrative
measures required to ensure that both State
governments function efficiently fromHyderabad. The GoM also studied issues
related to law and order in the region.

After five decades of independence, Seemandhra is
better off. It has a superfluous fishing industry, special
economic zone in Vizag and power generation
capacity of nearly 5,626 MW from both thermal and
hydel projects against the demand of 4,000 MW from
all categories of consumers. But the loss of Telangana
which is rich in natural resources and has filled the
combined state's treasury thus far, is still too big. In a
way, after nearly six decades of spoonfeeding, the new
state being born is actually Seemandhra and not
Telangana.

Speeding up the process for formation of
Telangana state, the central government
Monday set up the task force to study the law
and order situation in the state, particularly in
Hyderabad, in the post-bifurcation period.
The task force was likely to submit its report

ministry to work out modalities for forming a
separate Telangana state.

Hyderabad as present common capital
At present Hyderabad would not becontiguous with Seemandhra. There is an
alternative proposal for Seemandhra which
could resolve the issue of Hyderabad as apermanent common capital. This proposal
means that if the Nalgonda district goes to
Seemandhra, then this would enableHyderabad to be a border city of Telangana
and Seemandhra.

Seemandhra without Telangana can also focus on its
core strengths like ports, fisheries etc. As for
Hyderabad it's an overrated city, Visakhapatnam can
easily become a BPO.
The people of Telangana were concerned that their
region had a poorer economy than Andhra, though
they had a larger revenue base. They feared that the
irrigation projects on the Krishna and Godavari rivers
would not benefit Telangana proportionately, even
though people of Telangana controlled the
headwaters of the rivers.
