The social networking and micro-blogging sites are flooded with comments expressing indignation over Telangana protagonists going ahead with their rail blockade programme despite the gloomy mood prevailing in the country in the wake of terror strikes in Mumbai.
The popular sites like Facebook and Twitter provided an instant forum for people from various walks of life to express their views on the agitation and the enormous hardship it is causing to the common public.
Several users noted that passengers from other states and cities, including Mumbai and Maharashtra, were stranded as trains passing through the volatile Telangana region were cancelled.
“When India is writhing in pain over the bomb blasts, Telangana acitivists are seen dancing on the railway tracks. Shameful act,” a Facebook user said in his status message. Another tweeted “It is high time such agitations are banned.”
There was an overwhelming sense of outrage over “Rail Roko” agitation which besides causing severe inconvenience to general public reflected an insensitive approach of the organizers. Many commented that the organizers should have called off the programme in view of the Mumbai tragedy.
There was an outpouring of anger by netizens, targeting Prof Kodandaram who is the convener of the Telangana Joint Action Committee (TJAC).
“Professor of Political Science needs lessons in Civic Science,” said one of the status messages.
