While that may be the committee’s analysis, here is another analysis that is sounding more apt. There is a very good reason why Congress cannot give T-state and this is purely for political reasons. For starters, the decision has to be taken by the high command though it is garbed as the decision of the regional political parties. Right now, it is a damage control measure due to the immature statement issued on December 9th, 2009.
The key problem they are seeing now is the emergence of Y S Jagan and already the Seemandhra and Coastal Andhra Congressmen are not up for splitting the state. So, if the high command is to give a T-state then it will brew an internal revolt and ensure that Jagan gets the red carpet welcome. On the other hand, congress will become dummy as the wily fox KCR will project himself as the messiah for the Telangana masses and dump congress.
Already, he has been making moves to join hands with Jagan so that a mid-term situation can be reached and he can cash in on the sentiment. The congressmen realize KCR is not trustworthy so joining hands with him would mean doom. For now, by going in for a developmental package, CM Kiran Kumar Reddy and Co can focus on improving the projects and gain public confidence in the T-region before the 2014 elections commence. The high command realizes that Andhra Pradesh is the only state which has been loyal to the congress and also the highest contributor of seats since the 1977 emergency.
As for the people of Telangana, it has never been the sentiment but purely a political driven movement by the TRS which was formed by exploiting the sentiment. Right now, they are confused with the SKC report as it is looking quite ambiguous. As for the Congress high command, they will now rethink on their strategy and work on countering the Jagan tsunami and the KCR trouble.
