Decision on Telangana driven by Rahul's plan to split UP

Several Congress leaders feel that the Centre's decision to form Telangana is part of a longterm strategy chalked out by the AICC general secretary, Mr Rahul Gandhi, who wants to gain hold over Uttar Pradesh by dividing it into Bundelkhand and Purvanchal.

The Centre's decision on Telangana would bring life to agitations in the two regions of UP and would aid Mr Gandhi's political strategies.
