The Telangana Political Joint Action Committee (TJAC) and Left parties have called for a State-wide bandh on Saturday, protesting against the amendment to the AP Re-organisation Act.

The ruling Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) and Congress party have announced support to the bandh. 

The amendment was passed in the Lok Sabha today, clearing the way for transfer of 211 villages in Andhra Pradesh from Khammam district of Telangana.

Most of these villages will be submerged when the Polavaram project is completed.
