Pesident Pranab Mukherjee has given his nod to the Telangana Bill which is likely to be tabled in Parliament tomorrow.

Home ministry officials said tonight that the Andhra Pradesh Reorganisation Bill, which was approved by the Union Cabinet but rejected by the state assembly, has been sent back to the home ministry with the Presidential approval.

The bill is likely to be introduced in the Rajya Sabha tomorrow, an official said. The Union cabinet had on Friday approved the draft bill for creation of Telangana by bifurcating Andhra Pradesh, notwithstanding the state assembly's rejection of the legislation.
