Seemandhra ministers and MPs, including the six suspended legislators, today held a crucial meeting, ahead of tabling of Telangana Bill in Parliament.
According to sources, all Seemanadhra ministers except for two are likely to protest against the introduction of the Bill in the well of the House.
Sources further said that an expelled MP is expected to give a notice for no-confidence motion against the government, in a bid to mount pressure against tabling the Telangana Bill.
An MP claimed that they have already mobilised the support of 37 MPs in the last two days.
Emerging out of the meeting, none of the Ministers were ready to comment on what they have discussed in the meeting.
However, one senior minister said they will oppose the Bill.
