Who is the real architect of Telangana ? Who else but former PCC chief D.Srinivas, who lost his Nizamabad assembly seat twice but had brought party to power by heading the PCC on two ocassions.
If his words were to be trusted Srinivas says that he had several sittings with congress president Sonia Gandhi to convinced her to give Telangana without any conditions. But Sonia wanted to ensure that Telangana would not become another Chattisgarh.
He says that even Sonia was not fully impressed about Telangana campaign conducted by KCR and had felt that Maoists had taken over TRS and T JAC and hence Congress had gone back on separate state issue as a result in December ,2009 from granting Telangana .
Giving all credit to Sonia Gandhi who conducted series of studies , surveys and also consultations with economists, social scientists, politicians and also NGO he said Congress president had finally decidedgrant Telangana and suspected Seemandhra furor etc.
