HYDERABAD: Telugu Desam MLAs from Telangana are willing to resubmit their resignations but are hesitating to do it alone fearing possible 'poaching' of around 12 of them by the Telangana Rashtra Samithi.
That, insiders say, is the sole reason why the TDP MLAs are insisting that Congress MLAs too should come forward to resubmit resignations en masse."All the 33 TDP MLAs are ready to resubmit resignations without waiting for the Congress MLAs, but then it will be a problem to us. The TRS is waiting to poach on at least 10 to 12 MLAs. If such a large number of MLAs go into the TRS fold, resubmission of resignations by us will be of no use," a leader of the Telangana Telugu Desam Forum (TTDF) remarked.

He said that they had sent emissaries several times to the TRS saying that TDP MLAs too would submit resignations again and contest on TDP symbol, and the TRS and the political JAC should declare that they would not work for the defeat of the TDP. "But, there has been no response from the TRS and TJAC on this," a TTDF leader said. The TTDF also proposed that TRS and TDP MLAs resign afresh and go for byelections. In such a case the TRS and the TDP MLAs should contest as independents or candidates of the TJAC. The TRS and the TJAC rejected this proposal too, TTDF sources said.

Meanwhile, at a press conference, TTDF convener E Dayakar Rao said that all the 33 TDP MLAs from Telangana region would go to the Assembly on September 28 to submit resignations.

The TTDF will organise a oneday fast from 10 am to 4 pm at all Assembly constituency headquarter towns in support of the Sakala Janula Samme. "Unlike the TRS, TTDF is sincere in its commitment to the Telangana cause," Dayakar Rao claimed.
