Letter.

How many new states for India?         Letter Published in The National Uae on 2 August 13
I am writing in reference to Telangana defies the protests to be 29th state (July 31).
After a long struggle and lots of perseverance, the Indian government has sanctioned Telangana as a separate state. This is a dramatic development in Indian politics.
Despite mixed opinions from other political parties, the decision was taken by the ruling Congress party's high command.
It is likely that people in other areas will now start raising their voices to achieve statehood.
The question is: will these new states be viable?
K Ragavan, India
