Hyderabad: Telangana Chief Minister designate K Chandrasekhar Rao has called for a bandh on Thursday in the 10 districts of Telangana, opposing the Centre's move to merge seven mandals of Telangana into Seemandhra, as a fallout of the Polavaram water project.
It was decided by the previous UPA government at the Centre. K Chandrashekhara Rao is demanding that not an inch of Telangana should go to Seemandhra, the residuary state of Andhra Pradesh.
Since the TRS has come to power on its own in Telangana, the bandh is likely to be a success. The TRS has won 63 Assembly seats and 11 Lok Sabha seats in the recent Assembly and Lok Sabha elections.
Telangana has 119 Assembly seats and 17 Lok Sabha seats.
KCR is scheduled to take oath as the first Chief Minister of a new state on June 2.
