Why Telangana people think they are better off with seperate state?
Why GO 610 not implemented even after 20years? Why Sri sailam right bank canal which irrigates Kurnool completed 20years back but left bank canal which irrigates Mahboob nagar is still pending even though it has all clearances? Why Polavaram, Pulichitala, Pothireddy padu(which benefits Coastal Andhra/Rayala seema) are being constructed in hurry without any clearances? While I don't see any effort to work on Ichampally project which irrigate Telangana lands? Is it not true that AP rulers sold all Telangana goverment lands to raise money to construct irrigation projects which help Coastal andhra/Rayalaseema? Is it not true that Nagarjuna sagar's original project location/design changed to benefit Coastal Andhra districts? Is it not true that Politicians/beaurocarats and their friends/relatives used the priviliged info buy lands at cheap rates, whether it around Hyderabad or wherever irrigation canals were proposed?(FYI I am against Politicians/beaurocarats using privileged info for their persenal benefit even after formation of Telangana state. But right now this condition causing to increase the regional imbalances and heartburn among Telanganites).
When Telangana engineers talk about water grid that help both Telangana and Andhra, why AP government insist on building on Polavaram project such a way that it only benefits Andhra and Telangana loses that water rights on Godavari forever?

Simple answer is out of 52 years of AP history, only 6years are ruled by Telangana CMs in 4terms with longest term of 2years(Telanganite don't consider Vengal Rao as Telangana CM because he is recent migrant and is not assimmilated into Telangana). Even these Telangana CMs have to depend upon Non-Telangana Beaurocrats. More than 90% of secretariate employees are non-telanganite. More than loss of jobs non-representration of telanganites in beaurocracy is one of the main reason for injustice to Telangana. Literacy levels of Telangana and Non-Telangana is almost equal level; then why so much difference only 8% of secretariate employees are telanganites(telangana population is more than 40% of AP population). Is it not the descrimintaion of senior level bearocracy(almost all of them from Andhra)? Corruction could be one reason too(on average Andhra people are more rich, conpared to Telanganites to pay big bribes). We need to eliminate both descrimination and corruption; but these facts are creating the imbalances between the regions which is even bigger problem.
AP CMs from Telengana:
