  1. VISALANDHRA MAHASABHA Unjust demand for telangana

  2. About US • Visalandhra Mahasabha (VMS) is formed by a dedicated group of people from all walks of lifeand all regions of the State. • We consider it our sacred duty to preserve the unity of our State. • We seek to celebrate our glorious history, ancient language and rich culture. • We draw our inspiration from “Andhra Mahasabha”, the vanguard in the struggle for the formation of Andhra Pradesh as a linguistic state.

  3. About US • The decade-long separatist agitation for Telangana is based on blatant lies and false propaganda. • The separate Telangana argument has gone unchallenged, uncontested and unquestioned all these years. • Violence, vandalism, abuse and intimidation muzzled the sane voices of unity from Telangana region. • This narrative exposes the lies, myths and falsehoods of the separatists.

  4. Visalandhra Mahasabha THE SEPARATIST argument

  5. The false argument for telangana • “Historically and culturally, the people of Telangana have little in common with people of other regions of the State”. • “Telangana is lagging in irrigation, education& industrial development vis-à-vis Coastal Andhra & Rayalaseema”. • “Leaders of Coastal Andhra & Rayalaseema have repeatedly flouted agreements made to protect interests of Telangana People”. People were fed these distorted versions. However, facts paint a radically different picture.
