To the honorouble President Am sure you must be aware of the unrest over the Telangana issue which has been taking place for the last few weeks in Andhra Pradesh,the Telangana movement has been there since the states were formed in 1956 and the Telangana people have been fighting it over for the last 50 years, it has reached to such a level where they could not take the oppression anymore and so the students have taken over this time. We have given a chance for United Andhra Pradesh for 50 years but nothing has changed in Telangana region. Now, when people have started rejoicing over the decision of the centre, the politicians have started to play their dirty game like they always do, inciting, instigating people from Andhra and Rayalseema regions to demand for either separate states or United Andhra. This is being done just to dilute the Telangana movement which has taken momentum. Telangana was always a neglected state, am not sure how the people of Andhra or Rayalseema benefit out of United Andhra cos' for them Telangana doesnt make any difference. It's only the capital city of Hyderabad where they seem to have invested a lot of money is an interest of botheration for them.If they continue to do so, the farmers, the unemployed youth of Telangana will be deprived of their rights like it has been happening for the last 50 years. a. There are 10 districts in Telangana, 9 in Andhra and 4 in Rayalaseema. Out of these 7 districts in Telangana, 3 in Andhra and 1 in Rayalaseema are considered severely backward districts which means 70% of districts in Telangana are backward while in Andhra it is 35% and in Rayalaseema it is 25%. Apart from these there are some areas in all parts of the state which are also backward. b. 45% of the state income comes from Telangana region. When it comes to utilization of funds, the share of Telangana is only 28%. c. Normally canals are dug to supply water to the crops from rivers for cultivation. The amount of land cultivated through canals in just Guntur district is more than the land cultivated with canals in entire Telangana region. d. Nagarjuna sagar dam is built in Nalgonda district which is in Telangana but majority of the water from the dam is used for Krishna and Guntur district. The original dam was supposed to be build much ahead of its present location but the location was changed so that it falls in the Telangana region. Due to the construction of the dam several hectares of Lime stone mines vanished as part of the dam back waters. Everyone know that lime stone is used for producing cement. Even the natural resources were not allowed to remain. e. Fluorinated water problem is only in Nalgonda district which has not been resolved since decades. f. Two major rivers Krishna and Tungabhadra enter the state of AP in the district of Mahaboobnagar(the biggest district in Telangana) but the district always remains the worst draught hit areas along with Anantapur because there is no project and process with which the water can be utilized. The plans for utilization has been pending for decades. g. RDS (Rajolibanda Diversion Scheme) is build in Mahaboobnagar to provide water to 85000 hectares of land in the district. The leaders of Rayalaseems blasted the gates of RDS and water is supplied to KC (Kurnool-Cudapah) canal while only remaining water, if any, is supplied to the lands in Mahaboobnagar. h. 3 TMC of water from Gandipet is sufficient to supply drinking water to our city. Every year 1700 TMC of water is wasted and is flown into Bay of Bengal from river Godavari. Starting from Nizambad to Bay of Bengal there is no project allowed to build on Godavari. If it is built leaders in Godavari districts fear that the fertile lands in the area may fall short of water. If the Godavari water is utilized properly, there will be no scarcity for food grains in our state. i. In Telangana regions, only few areas cultivate one crop a year and very rarely two crops a year while most of the land doesnâ
