What is holding up the Telangana Bill? The TRS, TJAC and the BJP all view the conditionality over Hyderabad with disfavor on principle. But the decision of the Congress government just months before elections has deprived all these parties, which have consistently supported Telangana statehood, of a well-cultivated electoral platform. The Congress has ceased to talk to the TRS and all ideas of merger, alliance, seat adjustments have disappeared. TRS faces oblivion and no political party commits suicide. The proposed conditionality gives TRS and TJAC an opportunity to renew the agitation for withdrawal of this clause in the bill. The TRS also is contemplating the option of an electoral adjustment with BJP if the latter brings in amendments to remove the offending clauses. As for BJP, it needs to regain the initiative in Telangana for which cause it has offended its Seemandhra constituency, negligible as it is in comparison with its Telangana base. If the BJP moves against Hyderabad conditionality, it will be in a win-win situation. If it succeeds, it can claim (rightly) to have saved Hyderabad for Telangana. If it does not it will point to Congress as the yet-again great betrayer of Telangana and promise to reverse it if Telangana votes them to power. http://newindianexpress.com/states/andhra_pradesh/What-is-ho lding-up-the-Telangana-Bill/2013/10/28/article1859634.ece | ||

Decent Analysis in DC http://www.deccanchronicle.com/131023/news-current-affairs/a rticle/telangana-bill-likely-come-winter-session-parliament The Telangana Bill is likely to come up in the Winter Session of Parliament, which the Centre intends to convene from December 5. According to sources, UPA chairperson Sonia Gandhi is keen to have the T-Bill passed in the Winter Session. But it all depends on the schedule of business that will evo-lve at the pre-session all-party meeting. The Group of Ministers that is working on the Telangana Bill is expected to conclude its business around November 15, after which the draft legislation will be placed before the Union Cabinet. The Cabinet will send the Bill to the President who will refer it to the AP Assembly to obtain its views, giving it 10 to 15 days time. After that, the President will send it to the Cabinet. In all probability the T-Bill will be introduced in Parliament around December 10. Sources pointed out that after the President refers the draft T-Bill to the Assembly, Speaker Nadendla Manohar, in consultation with Chief Minister N. Kiran Kumar Reddy, will summon the House. Certain quarters are raising the possibility of a Constitutional crisis being created to stall the T-Bill. But, according to sources in the Speaker’s Office, after the President refers the Bill to the Assembly, whether or not the House is convened, debate is deferred or the Assembly cannot transact business, the President will view it as the Assembly is having expressed its opinion. Speculations are rife that the CM may anno-unce his resignation, before or after the T-debate, or before the Union Cabinet sends the T-Bill to the President. Sources said that would not help. In case the CM resigns before the Assembly convenes, or announces it during the sitting, the Governor will ask him to continue as caretaker. In this case, the caretaker government can convene the Assembly as the House will be in existence. If a new government has to be formed, there will be no hurdle for the House to transact business under the new Cabinet. If the CM recommends dissolution of the Assembly, supported by a Cabinet resolution, and if there is no dissent, the Governor may order dissolution of the House. In that case the T-process will be delayed until a new Assembly is formed. However, if ministers and legislators from Telangana submit a memorandum to the Governor opposing the measure, he is not bound by the earlier resolution. Such a situation arose in 1995, when the NTR Cabinet recommended dissolution of the House but then Governor Krishna Kant refused to take cognisance of it. |
