Huge protest by women tomorrow

Kurnool: Several thousands of women would converge at Kondareddi Burju here on Thursday to give a united call to withdraw the decision to divide the state. Anuradha, vice-president of the Joint Action Committee, said here on Tuesday that thousands of women would participate in the ‘Mahila Garjana’ to be held on Thursday to mark their protest against the decision to divide Andhra Pradesh.

She alleged that UPA chairperson Sonia Gandhi has taken the decision with a political motive. The Centre was not responding to the agitation though they have been agitating for the last 42 days in various forms of protest, she said and added that this forced the women to come out to stage protest demonstrations, she added. She called upon women to participate in large numbers in the protest demonstration on Thursday.
