Within minutes of the arrival of the Union Industries Minister N D Tiwari and the AICC(I) general secretary G K Moopanar in Hyderabad, T Anjiah announced that he had informed the party high command of his desire to step down as chief minister. The two observers from Delhi drove from the Lake View guesthouse to the Praja Bhawan, the official residence of the CM for consultations. Emerging from the room while the discussions were on, Anjiah beckoned the reporters and made the announcement. He said that he communicated his desire to step down two days ago. He is likely to submit his resignation to the governor after the observers submit their report.
