Kotla bats for Samaikyandhra state

His first preference was for Samaikyandhra state, said Union minister of state for railways Kotla Surya Prakash Reddy in New Delhi on Saturday.

He made it clear that he would not agree for dividing Rayalaseema states.  The Union Minister also said that the same message had been conveyed to PCC chief Botsa Satyanarayana too.

Kotla said that he wanted Rayalaseema state with Ongole and Nellore if a separate Telanagana state was formed.
