In an exclusive interview with NDTV today, Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Kiran Kumar Reddy said he was willing to quit his post to keep the state together.
- They should send a bill which is ready to be put in Parliament.
- They have sent a faulty bill, a draft bill... if this bill is accepted by Parliament as it is, I said, I'll quit politics.
- The bill has to go to the Cabinet, it has to go to the President and then come to the Parliament
- There are over 9000 amendments which were not debated by the Assembly
- Centre is behaving like they are Telangana representatives; they have forgotten most of the people of Andhra Pradesh don't want the state divided
- I'm standing with the people of Andhra Pradesh
- State is more important, my future is not important
- I'm the 16th Chief Minister, it is a temporary post. The state is permanent. People are permanent.
- Certain people do want Telangana and I'm not saying it is unjustified. But people will suffer if the state is divided.
- There is no state in the country which has been divided when the state legislature has rejected it
- I am sure that the bill cannot come to the Parliament. There are legal issues there
- The future of the youngsters of the state, farmers is important
- Let us not mix political gains with the future of a state. Advertisement
