Unlike his predecessor Y S Rajasekhara Reddy, who took a tough line against separate Telangana, Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister K Rosaiah has no no personal view on the bifurcation of his state and would like the Centre to find a lasting solution not not a "temporary truce".
He says he will accept whatever the Central government decides and that it is the responsibility of the Central government to find a lasting solution to the current political turmoil in the state.
77-year-old Konijeti Rosaiah has been moving from crisis to crisis ever since he assumed chief ministership of Andhra Pradesh after Reddy was killed in a helicopter crash on September two last year.
First it was the campaign launched by the late chief minister's son Jagan Mohan Reddy for becoming Chief Minister, then the handling of one of the worst floods and now now the Telangana crisis.
"I have no no personal view on the bifurcation issue. I have no no personal opinion. As long as I am holding the post of Chief Ministyer in the state, I do not not have any personal views. My personal view is not not at all an issue in this matter," the low-profile vetaran Congress told PTI in an interview today.
Rosaiah, who was Finance Minister in Reddy's Cabinet, incidentially headed a committee to seek views on separate Telangana and the late Chief Minister was dead set against splitting the state.
