"The Centre has betrayed us once again," he said, angrily reacting to the ToR announced this morning.

He directed all his party MPs, MLAs and MLCs to resign from their posts immediately in protest against the "betrayal".

"KCR has convened an emergency meeting of the TRS politburo to discuss the TOR of the Sri Krishna Committee and chalk out future course of action," party sources said.

The Congress legislators hailing from Telangana region too are meeting in the evening today to discuss the TOR.

Praja Rajyam Party MLA from Nirmal in Adilabad also decided to resign from his post protesting the ToR. He is expected to submit his resignation to Assembly Speaker N Kiran Kumar Reddy later in the evening.
