Would Gandhi be in Favour of Division?
457. LETTER TO S. RADHAKRISHNAN
SEGAON, WARDHA,
December 23, 1938
DEAR SIR RADHAKRISHNAN,
As you know I have always aimed at a redistribution of Provinces on a linguistic basis. The cue was taken from the Andhra movement. I should therefore be more than glad if Andhra could have its status as a Province recognized even now.
Yours sincerely,
M. K. GANDHI

I think pro-telangana folks will say, ours is a separate language!
