New Delhi, Dec 9 (IANS) Around 20 students Wednesday barged into the Andhra Bhavan in the capital and shouted slogans against the state government, demanding the creation of a separate Telangana state, police said.
The group shouted slogans in front of Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister K. Rosaiah’s cottage in the Andhra Bhavan.
It was not known whether Rosaiah, who is in town to meet Congress chief Sonia Gandhi to discuss the ongoing turmoil in the state, was present in the cottage.
As the slogan-shouting continued, officials took four of the students inside the Chief Minister’s office to enable them hand over a memorandum.
The protests come when Telangana Rashtra Samiti (TRS) chief K. Chandrasekhara Rao’s condition worsened in Hyderabad as he continued his fast-unto-death on the 11th day demanding a separate state of Telangana.
