The meeting of the Chief Ministers of Telugu states concluded with discussions led by Telangana’s Deputy Chief Minister Bhatti Vikramarka, addressing key issues stemming from bifurcation promises made over the past decade. Emphasizing unresolved matters, it was decided to establish committees comprising high-level officials to address these issues comprehensively. One significant outcome was the mutual agreement between the two states to collaborate on combating drug abuse and cybercrimes.
During the nearly two-hour meeting, the Chief Ministers deliberated on ten pivotal issues, leading to the formation of ministerial and official committees tasked with finding mutually beneficial solutions. The focus included sensitive topics like legal implications and the asset distribution of companies outlined in Schedules 9 and 10 of the State Reorganisation Act. Additionally, discussions encompassed matters such as pending bills, financial corporation issues, and the division of employees and resources.
Notably, the meeting highlighted requests for the return of five villages to Telangana, originally part of seven mandals merged into Andhra Pradesh. While demands were made by both sides regarding property allotments in Hyderabad, specific agreements were reportedly unresolved. Chief Minister Revanth Reddy, along with Deputy Bhatti Vikramarka and several ministers and officials, actively participated in the discussions, reflecting the complex nature of interstate issues affecting both Telangana and Andhra Pradesh.
