Kadapa (AP): Congress MP and former union minister A Saipratap today expressed "confidence" that Andhra Pradesh would remain "united" as a state as the bifurcation bill was moved at a wrong time.
"The state is lucky because the bifurcation bill was moved at the "wrong time" (just ahead of Lok Sabha elections) which would make bifurcation difficult to be completed," he said here.

After chairing a meeting of a district level vigilance and monitoring committee, Saipratap, who is an MP from Rajampeta, said that it is unprecedented that ruling party MPs had moved a no-confidence motion against their own government in the Lok Sabha.
He said that the Rayalaseema region, which has allegedly been denied of its legitimate share of water so far, should be provided with water.
Once development of this region is ensured, the state's bifurcation could be considered, he said.
