Villagers in Maharashtra have already staged dharnas seeking merger of their villages with Telangana. This began much before the formation of the BRS itself, with representatives of Nagaon, Bhokar, Degloor, Kinwat and Hathgaon Assembly segments in Nanded District meeting Chief Minister K Chandrashekhar Rao in Hyderabad in 2019, expressing their willingness to be part of Telangana. Forty villages in Dharmabad Taluk too passed a resolution demanding merger of their villages with Telangana in the past.
In 2022, Maharashtra’s Dharmabad Taluq Sarpanchs Association president Surekha Patil Hotte extended their solidarity to the BRS, with Hotte handing over a letter of consent to Forest Minister Allola Indrakaran Reddy in Basar on October 2.
Party leaders also point out that people residing in the bordering districts can understand Telugu and have relatives in several villages and towns such as Nirmal, Adilabad and Bhainsa towns. They also share cultural and social links with the people of Telangana.
