NewsX: Pro-Vidarbha activists protest in Delhi for a separate state

NewsX: The demands for creating the state of Vidarbha by dividing Maharashtra have reached the national capital. Around 60-70 activists from the Vidarbha Joint Action Committee are holding protests near Jantar Mantar demanding for a separate Vidarbha. Former BJP president Nitin Gadkari sympathised with the demand. "In principle, BJP supports the idea of smaller states and formation of Vidarbha. If a bill is brought in Parliament then BJP will certainly support it. In fact, Congress must take up the issue of Vidarbha along with Telangana and BJP will support it," said Gadkari in Nagpur. Meanwhile, Maharashtra BJP President Devendra Phadanvis along with other leaders will meet party's top brass in Delhi to apprise them of the sentiments of the people in Vidarbha and press to club the issue of separate statehood, with the proposed Telangana Bill.
