- The attempt of the Government with the help of the doctors, police officials and district officials to make KCR end his indefinite Hunger Strike failed. KCR announced that he will continue his hunger strike till the Separate Telangana State is formed. Under the aegis of the student JAC hunger strikes began at the Art College. The teachers of the Osmania University extended support to the hunger strike of the students. The Osmania University Principal Professor Sudershan Rao went to the hunger strike camp of the students and supported the students on strike.
- The leaders of the employees unions and the people’s organization went to the hunger strike camps of the Osmania University students and extended their support. From this stage onwards the relay hunger strike camps were turned into Agitation fairs with the poetry of the poets and the cultural activities of the Telangana artists. The Agitation of the Osmania students was not restricted to the campus and calls were given to conduct different forms of protest strikes and programmes so as to increase pressure on the Government on the Telangana problem.
- The hunger strike camps also began in the Kakatiya, Sathavahana, Telangana, Palamuru and Mahatma Gandhi Universities in Telangana. The students in the entire Telangana gave up their studies and began besieging or surrounding the houses of the people’s representatives, Gheraos and protests and Dharnas became the order of the day.
- In support of the hunger strike by the KCR, the entire Telangana was on the boil. Telangana was rocked by rallies, rasta rokos and slogans of Jai Telangana.
- The AICC responded on 1*December 2009 on the hunger strike of KCR by stating, “The Telangana issue is the most serious problem. It is a sentiment and emotion. It has to be solved by discussions. The Congress on its own took the initiative for discussions.
This is a subject pending for a long time. The parties and the government must come to a consensus on this problem.” This was announced by Singhvi, the official spokesman of the AICC at Delhi. The CPI Party with its affiliated parties joined the Telangana Agitation. Atall places in Telangana there were strikes, dharnas, rasta rokos, relay hunger strikes, protests by the employees and the besieging of the houses of the people’s representatives with the result that the entire Telangana was paralyzed. The police restrictions were increased and attempts were made by police to suppress the agitation instead of having talks with them.
