Pradesh, the Centre reportedly agreed over the Telangana resolution on Wednesday and asked the Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister K Rosaiah to move a resolution in Andhra Pradesh Assembly on Telangana. The resolution will be moved soon in the
Andhra Assembly. According
reports, the Congress on Wednesday evening was working on a compromise formula to
offer to KCR, who was on hunger strike in the hospital over his demand
for separate Telangana State. The Congress party will set up fast track mechanism
to grant Statehood, it was reported. Meanwhile, Andhra CM has left the issue of the
status of Hyderabad to Prime Minister Manmohan Singh. "We have asked KCR to give
up his fast," Andhra Chief Minister Rosaiah was reported as saying in the evening.
Meanwhile, Rosaiah was reportedly going to meet the Prime Minister and Home Minister

A high-level meet was convened at 10, Janpath, the residence of Congress president
Sonia Gandhi and reportedly being participated by Union Home Minister P.
Chidambaram, Union Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee, and Union Minister for Law
and Justice Veerappa Moily in the national capital. The meet is crucial as it is likely to
take a decision on the compromise formula to be offered to the KCR, who is presently on
his hunger strike to declare Telangana as a separate State.
Later, Chidambaram, Mukherjee, Moily and Rosaiah called on Prime Minister
Manmohan Singh at his residence, after the meeting with Sonia Gandhi. Both the meets
were being held highly important, as a decision on the compromise formula to be offered
to KCR, who is on his hunger strike to declare Telangana as a separate State, was
expected to be reached at in these meetings.
