January 1969: As conciliatory measure, the All-Party State Accord was signed. Indira Gandhi also announced packages for the region, styled an eight-point formula and a five-point formula. Court upholds the rule of job and educational quotas for Telangana.
Then, the anti-Telangana stir was launched — the Jai Andhra Movement.
It is important to note here that, Venkaiah Naidu and Chandrababu Naidu were in the forefront of the Jai Andhra stir.
The Centre, post the stir, yielded and nullified almost all the safeguards that had been put in place.
