PCC chief Botsa Satyanarayana has told the Telangana JAC leaders that he wouldn't ask the centre to bifurcate Andhra Pradesh. At the same time he would not ask the government to keep the state in tact when it comes out with a decision to bifurcate, he said. To make a point, he has said that Centre took a decision on Telangana state on December 10, 2009 only after all parties nodding to Telangana state in a meeting that was held on December 7, 2009.

Today JAC leaders met Botsa Satyanarayana and asked him to ensure that all parties clear their stand on Telangana issue. Commenting on the same, Botsa said other political parties should first make their stand clear on the issue. Also, he said he was bound to the decision taken by the Centre on Telangana.
