Telangana
Andhra Pradesh is the fifth largest State in the Indian Union. It consists of
three distinct regions, namely, Andhra, Rayalaseema and Telangana.
Andhra and Rayalaseema were part of the Madras province of the British
Empire. For approximately 400 years, Telangana was part of the
Hyderabad State, an independent kingdom ruled by the Nizams and
Muslim Dynasties.
5. The Telangana region currently has 45% of the forest area in the
state is. This is spread across five districts. Thus one could say that
this new state will have a rich variety of flora and fauna. This will
also constitute an important part of the biodiversity of the state.
8. Other mineral resources like bauxite and mica are present in large
quantities. Thus mining and other related industries could be further
developed.
9. The people of Telangana can build dams across rivers like the
Godavari and Krishna. Thus they will be able to receive the benefits
of irrigation and irrigation based programmes. This will greatly help
develop agriculture in the region. However, due to this, water supply
to Andhra might be cut off to a great extent.
10. Hyderabad is present in this region. Thus there is a lot of
scope for the development of the IT industry.
14. Lastly, and most importantly, the formation of a new state gives a
unique opportunity to develop and bring forward not only the area
but the people living there as well.
6. Large sums of money will also be required for developing the new
state.
7. The region of Telangana has huge areas which are Naxal belts. This
may hamper the development of the new state.
10. There is a lot of distrust in the region due to which industries like IT,
commerce and trade, and many other industries suffer. Another
problem that stems up is lack of investments for various projects
and industries.
Although there are more pros than cons in creating the state of
Telangana, this is mostly in benefit of that particular state, and will not
be beneficial to the union of India. One could sat that the state of
Telangana shouldn’t be formed.Formation and development of
Telangana as a state would require a lot of money. Instead of splitting
the state into two, special projects and capital could be allotted in the
development of the region as well as people. These could be
periodically checked upon. As for reservation of seats for the people in
not only the government but also industries and educational
institutions, a committee could be set up. This committee could also
see to the development of the people as well. Also, the creation of
another new state will just further divide the country and also pave
way for the bifurcation of other large states. This may come to harm
the unity and integrity of the nation.
