Land Water Language And Politics In Andhra Regional Evolution In India Since 1850

Popularity 1
"This book explains how access to and use of land, water and language helped shape Andhra politics in India from 1850 down to the present day. After independence, the debate over land reform and policies on irrigation has shaped the fortunes of various governments, while the debate over the make-up of the language-based state has stimulated separatist movements like the one in support of Telangana."--Publisher website.
