BeyondHeadlines Special Correspondent

Hyderabad: The railway authorities in the southern Indian state of Andhra Pradesh today canceled 47 trains coming to Hyderabad from various parts of the southern region to foil a million-man march asking for creation of a separate Telangana state.

The Telangana Joint Action Committee (TJAC) on Thursday held the march to press the Congress-led United Progressive Alliance government for a bill in Parliament in this regard.
