Senior Congress leader and MP Rayapati Samba Siva Rao today said that Andhra Pradesh Congress legislature party has committed a mistake by authorising Congress chief Sonia Gandhi to take a decision on sensitive issue of separate Telangana.

The five time MP from Guntur referring to "midnight unilateral decision" of Congress Core Committee to concede the demand for the formation of Telangana, said that they naturally expected that Sonia would consult all the stakeholders before taking a decision.

"We are shocked and deeply disappointed at the hasty unilateral decision", he told reporters at his residence. Sambasiva Rao remarked that formation of a separate Telangana state is still in doubt and a resolution by AP State Legislature is mandatory for the purpose.

He attributed the Congress Core Committee decision more to the pressure from Congress leaders in Telangana than to the fast by Telangana Rashtra Samiti (TRS) chief K Chandra Sekhar Rao.

Sambasiva Rao claimed that Sonia has assured Andhra MPs to reconsider the Telangana decision and see to it that no injustice is done to any region in Andhra Pradesh.
