Paper I · 10 History of Telangana & the Statehood Movement · 10.6 Andhra Pradesh and the Telangana statehood movement (1956–2014)
10.6.3 Regional grievances in united Andhra Pradesh: water, funds and jobs, and the committees that studied them
Between 1956 and 2014 Telangana's case against united Andhra Pradesh rested on three grievances, often summed up as "neellu, nidhulu, niyamakalu" (water, funds, jobs): its share of Krishna and Godavari water, the use of its surplus revenue, and local jobs; each produced committees, tribunals and orders whose reports became the evidence base of the statehood movement.
