Hyderabad, Dec 5: "One of the most horrible features of politics is that all the political-propaganda, all the screaming and lies and hatred, comes invariably from people who are not committed to the objective cause."

Showing obeisance to impatience of Telangana MPs, the Centre on Wednesday decided to convene an all-party meeting on Telangana after the conclusion of the winter session of the Parliament on December 28. It appears that hectic confabulations by KCR brought the Congress around. Thus, the decision to call for the all-party meet could be a counter-move to KCR’s designs of encouraging defections of Telangana Congress MPs into TRS.

With the above decision, the Congress wily leadership somehow managed to appease the restive T-Congress MPs for time being and in fact extended the December 9 deadline set by T-congress MPs to decide their future course of action for 23 more days and in the process the Congress think-tank, as its wont, once again demonstrated its mark of intelligence.

In doing so, the Congress high-command has rekindled the Telangana issue, notwithstanding the move was to save its skin in the light of voting on the Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in the retail segment in Parliament.

The Telangana Congress MPs, who were crestfallen until Tuesday with the party high command could-shouldering their demand, suddenly became excited and began to hail the decision as historic moment and tried to claim credit forgetting that their own leadership led by Ghulam Nabi Azad not very long time back uttered that an all-party meet was not required to take a decision on Telangana. They are acting like real life Gajnis forgetting that their own party itself is undecided on Telangana so far.

It is conveniently being forgotten by the now exuberant T-Congress MPs that there was no need to convene an all-party meet if the Congress decides to concede Telangana. Then who are they trying to convince by hailing the decision a historic moment.

Telangana Congress MPs, TRS leaders and their puppets in JACs always give a convenient slip to one pertinent issue. They ask the other parties like the Telugu Desam Party and the YSR Congress to spell out their point of view on the separate Statehood issue while comfortably forgetting their own failures to exert pressure on the Union Government and the Congress party to spell its stand. They have been riding on this false premise for too long and have been living in fantasy world that the people can be rallied around these false accusations against the TDP and YSRCP being the main hurdles of Telangana statehood in their eternity.

The Congress and TRS, which have been trying to pass the buck onto others always, may not be able to do so this time. Before asking the TDP and the YSR Congress to come up with their stand, the ruling Congress will have to take a stand and pronounce the same. If the Congress asserts that it is in favour of the separate State, the other two parties too can easily make their policies public. In such an event, it will be a real politic that decides their fate.

The Congress MPs, who have been demanding that only one representative should go to Shinde’s meeting to express their respective parties’ point of view, also must ensure that their party does the same first. Will the Lagadapatis, Kavuris, Rayapatis and Gades of the world accept a decision in favor of a separate Telangana? Would there be no possibility of some more regional parties sprouting in the wake of any decision — be it for or against Telangana separation?

If both the TDP and YSRCP declare that they are fully in favor of Telangana separation, but completely against the politics of KCR, TRS, Kodandaram and Telangana Congress MPs, what would be the tactics of TRS and the Congress in the region? How would they counter such a strategy of TDP and YRCP?

Having said the above, it is yet to be seen whether the Congress is trying to wriggle out of the current crisis on FDI by calling for an all-party meeting on Telangana. Once the Government crosses this bridge, it may not evince as much an interest as it did on Wednesday on the Telangana issue. Also, Seemaandhra MPs, who are more in number in the Congress, too can arm-twist the party.

The Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) leadership is looking at encouraging defection of the elected representatives of the ruling Congress in the region. At the backdrop of such moves by KCR, Congress needs to find ways to check KCR’s designs by somehow placating the ever restive T-MPs.

Though the T-MPs supported the government by voting in favour of the FDI on Wednesday, all eyes are focused on them on their future course of action after Tuesday night’s developments in which they closeted with KCR. Congress high-command is unlikely to take these tantrums of its MPs to embarrass it frequently and in times of crisis.

Now that the government survived the FDI crisis, what will happen to their fututre? Will Congress president Sonia Gandhi allow them to continue their tantrums? The Congress president may take a very serious view in keeping them under check in the days to come if the government manages to get through the FDI crisis.

The tantrums of KCR would anyhow be taken with a pinch of salt, for even after the Congress managed to overcome the present crisis for it is the Congress high command which would take a decision on what it should with the all-party meet and with its MPs and KCR would have no role in such delicate and crucial issues than keep luring the restless Congress MPs with his mind games.

The Telangana continues to be a thing of intrigue in its eternity, thanks to the machinations of all those political parties involved in the game Telangana and its politics has turned decadent, the political language became decadent, too.
