Anti-Telangana protest outside PM's house

Around 30 anti-Telangana supporters Thursday staged a protest outside Prime Minister Manmohan Singh's official residence here where a cabinet meet has been called to decide on the creation of a separate Telangana state.

Holding banners and shouting slogans against the division of the state, the protestors called for 'Saving Andhra Pradesh' and tried to enter the prime minister's residence at 7 Race Course Road here by breaking the barricades.

However, the protestors were bundled into police vans and taken away.

According to a police officer, the protestors arrived in small groups of two or three and assembled near the Prime Minister's House.
