Threat to security of country if State is divided: Mysoora

The Committee for Consultations on the situation in Andhra Pradesh headed by Justice B.N. Srikrishna held  consultations with  Rayalaseema Abhyudaya Sangham headed by Telugu Desam Party  leader Mysoora Reddy here on Tuesday.

Interacting with the  media after his consultations with the  Srikrishna panel, Mysoora Reddy said  `` I suggested  for a united Andhra  Pradesh. The  division of the state itself  is  a threat for the security  of the  country.’’

In case  if there is a division in the state then a ``Greater Rayalaseema  is a must,’’  added  the senior  TDP leader.

``I have placed before the  panel the development that took place not only in Hyderabad but also in the district of  Telangana, ‘’  Mysoora Reddy  observed.

Later the  panel heard the views of Samaikhya Andhra Students' JAC. Stressing the  need for  an integrated Andhra  Pradesh, they submitted  a 50-page report to the  panel.

If the state is divided then it will pave way for  terrorism and  Maoists will have an  upperhand  in the ruling  of  the  state, they felt.

``Setting aside  all the  political differences and  regional feelings, we are ready to have  an open  discussion with the  Osmania University  JAC, ‘’ the  Samaikhya Andhra Students' JAC explained.
