The Telugu state was unified after centuries of breakup between Muslim ruled Telengana, Colonial ruled Circars and Coastal Andhra. So it is emotional to see it broken up for petty reason of misgovernance. Telengana at 42% land area is the largest, however due to it being in rainshed area doesnt produce much. Due to long dhimmitude, Telengana has developed a sense of 'takleef' and blames the rest of Andhra Pradesh for its ills.
Leaders from Telengana, like M. Chenna Reddy, raise the issue of disparity and get to power and then they loot the treasury and the cycle goes on.
The state has dumped tremendous resources into developing Hyderabad at the cost of the whole state.
A firm hand is needed to bring some sense to the folks. If there is a demand for a break up then the Telugu tribal districts (Vizag, Vizianagaram, Srikakulam, Khammam, Adilabad also should demand a separate state like Chattisgarh.
