SHRI BHAGAT SINGH KOSHYARI to move the following Resolution:— "Having regard to the fact that— (i) the State of Andhra Pradesh was formed in the year 1956 after amalgamating Telugu speaking areas and due to wrong policies, some areas remained neglected in the fields of education, employment, irrigation, development, etc., and this neglect and backwardness have led to an acute feeling of alienation among the people of the Telangana region, who have been demanding a separate state since 1969; (ii) Telangana consists of ten districts of Andhra Pradesh, namely, Hyderabad, Rangareddy, Mahboobnagar, Medak, Nalgonda, Khammam, Warangal, Karimnagar, Adilabad and Nizamabad, out of which nine districts have been recognized by the Government of India as backward despite the fact that this region houses many natural resources, the benefits of which have failed to reach its people; ∗ The Bill was introduced on the 23rd December, 1999. 325 (iii) Vidarbha was part of CP & Berar i.e., Central Province and became part of Maharashtra in 1960; (iv) Nagpur Pact and Akola Pact are two important promises given to Vidarbha but have largely remained unfulfilled; (v) the backwardness of Vidarbha continued to grow even after programme of backlog removal was adopted in the wake of the Report of eminent economist, Prof. V.M. Dandekar; (vi) the backwardness of Vidarbha is visible if compared with other regions of the state in respect of irrigation, technical education, per capita income, outward migration, industry, employment generation, agriculture, animal husbandry and all indicators of development prove the backwardness of Vidarbha; (vii) studies have proved that Vidarbha will be a viable state and there is continued agitation for separate state of Vidarbha. (viii) the proposed Gorkhaland area in West Bangal, i.e., Darjeeling District and adjoining Dooars area which are under Jalpaiguri District were parts of two kingdoms of Sikkim and Bhutan before the advent of the British; (ix) the Government of India Act, 1919 constituted a Legislative Council for Bengal but Darjeeling had no representation, as it was declared an Excluded Area and kept outside the purview of the Legislature of the Bengal Presidency; (x) Post Independence, Darjeeling and the Dooars became part of West Bengal; (xi) the State Re-organization Commission in 1956 recommended creation of 14 states on linguistic lines; (xii) the census of 1951 for Darjeeling District projected the Nepali- speaking population as a miniscule minority by showing Nepali- speaking population only 17 per cent which was actually 66 per cent and thereby denied them separate state on linguistic lines; (xiii) the Indian Gorkhas having a distinct socio-cultural identity and concentrated in contiguous districts of North Bengal are fighting for the formation of a separate state within the Indian Union in order to preserve, protect and promote their distinct identity; (xiv) the Gorkhas, Bhutias and the Lepchas have a social, cultural and linguistic affinity with the tribals of the Dooras region, i.e., Santhals, Uraons, Mundas, Totas, Rabhas, Mechey and Raj Bangshis and Nepali is their lingua franca and is spoken throughout the region of Dooars; (xv) the demand, when fulfilled, will ensure the protection of the Gorkhas' distinct socio-cultural identity and will bring them into the mainstream and inculcate a sense of belonging; (xvi) the Ladakh region with the area of 86,904 square kilometers has only one representative in Parliament and two in State Assembly, due to this people's political voice is lost and there is poor recognition of their needs and requirement; (xvii) there is an urgent requirement to identify the aspiration and needs
