NEW DELHI: Among Assumption that the Congress Working Committee (CWC) could accede to the Demand for Telangana, a Congress MP has asked party Chief Sonia Gandhi to Consider a Separate state for Vidarba.

Vilas Muttemwar, Congress MP from Nagpur, told IANS Tuesday that he has written to Sonia Gandhi demanding that the party leadership consider demand for a divide state of Vidarbha out of Maharashtra.

 "The demand of Statehood for Vidarbha is stronger and older than Telangana," Muttemwar, a seven-time member of the Lok Sabha, told IANS.

 He said that the First State Reorganisation commission had made a recommendation for Vidarbha statehood but the then leadership in the region decided to join Maharashtra, following "intervention of the then party high command and guarantee that their interests will be sheltered".

 "No Promises have been fulfilled. There have been 45,000 farmer suicides (in Vidarbha). Thousands have Died Due to Starvation. There is no business," Muttemwar said.

 He Said there was a Controversy over the status of the Planned capital of Telangana but there were no issues about a Capital for Vidarbha.

 He said they were demanding creation of Vidarbha state by including 11 districts of Maharashtra. Vidarbha region holds 21.3 percent of the total population of Maharashtra.

The Indian congress Party is a major political party in India. It is the largest and oldest democratic political party in the world. The party's modern liberal platform is largely considered center-left in Indian political spectrum.

Founded in 1885 by Allan Octavian Hume, Dadabhai Naoroji, Dinshaw Wacha, Womesh Chandra Bonnerjee, Surendranath Banerjee, Monomohun Ghose, Mahadev Govind Ranade and William Wedderburn, the Indian National Congress became the leader of the Indian Independence Movement, with over 15 million members and over 70 million participants in its struggle against British rule in India. After independence in 1947, it became the nation's dominant political party.

The history of the Indian National Congress falls into two distinct eras:

The pre-independence era, when the party was at the forefront of the struggle for independence and was instrumental in the whole of India;

The post-independence era, when the party has enjoyed a prominent place in Indian politics, ruling the country for 48 of the 60 years since independence in 1947.

In the Pre-independence era, the congress was Divided in two groups, moderate and activist. The moderates were more educated and wanted to win people's faith to lead the nation to independence without bloodshed.the activists however wanted to follow a revolutionary path and make it a militant organization.
