Congress meet on Telangana ends without any major decision
Whether a new state of Telangana will be created remains an unanswered question. A meeting of the Congress core group led by Sonia Gandhi has ended without any major decisions. The region being debated has completed 18 days of a strike that telegraphs the threat of a violent agitation. In this part of Andhra Pradesh, trains and buses have been delayed or cancelled; businesses have been forced to shut down; the air is thick with the anticipation of news from Delhi about the area's future.
