Rashtrapati Bhavan sources have said that the President of India Pranab Mukherjee may grant two weeks extension on the debate of Andhra Pradesh Reorganization Bill commonly called as Telangana Bill. AP government's chief secretary Mohanthi has sent a letter on behalf of government seeking extension of four weeks on the debate of Telangana bill. “The debate of AP Reorganization Bill has started only few days back and every MLA needs to address their concern and so extension of four weeks would be fine,” were the key statements mentioned in the letter.
No to Four Weeks: Home Ministry
Meanwhile, the Home Ministry officials have likely to write a letter to President of India regarding the extension. Sources say that, Home Ministry has clearly mentioned about the Parliament sessions schedule and an extension of four weeks may not be favorable for placing the Telangana bill in Parliament.
