New Delhi: The Group of Ministers on Telangana will meet at Home Minister Sushil Kumar Shinde's residence on Friday. Sources have told CNN-IBN that while there will be no rethink, the bifurcation process might be slowed down.
The political stand off over the issue continues with Union HRD Minister Pallam Raju refusing to attend government meetings saying his resignation must be accepted. Meanwhile, it is the fifth day of TDP chief Chandrababu Naidu's fast in the capital and sources say that his condition is deteriorating.
YSR Congress president YS Jagan Mohan Reddy, who was shifted to a hospital in Hyderabad following his five-day hunger strike against the proposed bifurcation of Andhra Pradesh, may not be discharged on Friday, doctors said. "Jagan Mohan Reddy was forcibly administered IV fluids with police help after his admission last night. His health condition is still a bit painful as he held fast for the second time within a short span of time."
"His ketone bodies are still high. Our team of doctors is spending maximum time and trying for his recovery," a doctor from the state-run Nizam's Institute of Medical Sciences (NIMS)said on Thursday.
The TRS, meanwhile, is demanding that the government in the state be dismissed and President's rule be imposed.
There is some relief for Seemandhra residents as power employees called off their strike on Friday. However, curfew continues in Vizianagaram.
