AP and Telengana states got divided few months back. Few villages in the boundaries of AP and Telengana were now facing huge issues. Villages nearer to Bhadrachalam and Eluru were facing this sort of problems.
It is known that the division of the state turned controversial near Bhadrachalam region. Few villages in this region were completely handed over to AP while few of these regions were partially into AP state. Interestingly, the main centres nearer to these villages were into Telengana.
Hence, to trade their small scale goods and services, people used to go to the main centres like Bhadrachalam. But now, as this region is into Telengana, they were routing to places like Eluru and Kakinada which are far away from their villages. Villagers mentioned that they are literally getting crushed due to this aspect and they are not able to travel long distances to sell their goods.
