JAC call to ‘boycott’ goods, services

The all-party Telangana Joint Action Committee (JAC) on Sunday gave a call for ‘boycott’ of goods and services of the ‘propertied class’ which is opposed to the creation of separate Telangana. The JAC set a deadline for all elected representatives from village-level ward members to MPs to resign by Monday evening, failing which a programme to beat drums while putting them on alert would be taken up in villages the next day.

The JAC which announced the decisions after a meeting of its district units here, also resolved to give representations to MLAs and other elected representatives to resign between February 17 and 20.
