The curious onlookers were inquisitive and were seen making enquiries about the Deeksha. The committee members and the supporters went on explaining the benefits that the state will get once the special status is bestowed upon. 

Krishna Reddy Koduru explained that this is the least that he could do while the whole state is behind the genuine demand by the opposition leader Sri Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy. He requested the center to consider the demand of for the special status.
