The Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister K Rosaiah said the Government is assuring the industry of the State that there would not be any problems for business due to the ongoing Telangana and United Andhra Pradesh agitations.

"These problems (agitations) have arisen in the recent past. I am confident that the Government of India will sort out these problems very soon," Rosaiah told mediapersons on the sidelines of a conference on Natural Gas organised by the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) here today.

Replying to a question on Lagadapati Rajagopal joining in NIMS yesterday and subsequent tense moments in Hyderabad and across the State, he said that the law and order situation is very well under control.
