It was a sea of humanity everywhere in the campus. Though there were no political party representatives and no organisational mechanisms, the JAC student leaders made arrangements for themselves

A huge turn out of students to Osmania campus has electrified the situation at "
Telangana Vidyarthi Garjana" . When the meeting has started with invitees speaking one by one from the dias, students clapped to the provocative calls from leaders.
Power of youth and power of the students reverberated in their speeches. Most of these speeches concentrated on criticizing those Political parties who are against formation of Telangana state, remembering the 1969 agitation, warnings to Political leaders who are against Telangana and taking oaths to take forward the movement even without association of Political parties.

7. Bury the party offices of TDP, Congress and Lok satta if they are against Telangana.
8. All those students (Amaraveerulu) who lost lives in this Telangana movement should be given Rs.10lakh each and a Govt. job to one of their family members.
9. Roshaiah Gochi Oodaali and Seemandhra leaders Khabaddaar if any word uttered against Telangana.
10. Hyderabad is a part of Telangana state and no one can tear it apart.
