Hyderabad, Feb 12 (Inditop.com) The Joint Action Committee (JAC) of Osmania University students Friday called for Telangana shutdown Saturday to protest the terms of reference of the Srikrishna panel, saying these were not favourable for formation of Telangana state.
Demanding that the centre immediately dissolve the panel, JAC said that only people’s struggle could achieve a separate state of Telangana.
The JAC, which is spearheading the students’ movement for Telangana state, also asked people to launch a non-cooperation movement.

Meanwhile, anticipating protests, police have deployed a large number of security forces at Osmania University, the nerve centre of the Telangana agitation.
