Pradesh and create Telangana has sparked protests for statehood across
the country

Purvanchal, Bundelkhand, Awadh Pradesh, and Paschi Pradesh and this was ratified by the Assembly. She reiterated that the BSP was in favour of smaller States

Situation in Assam
The demand for Bodoland has also resurfaced forcefully, with Bodoland Territorial Council chief Hagrama Mohilari announcing a rally in Kokrajhar on August 4,2013
Bodoland is an autonomous Administrative unit constituted under the Sixth Schedule of the Constitution of India covering an area of 8795 Sq. Km
Also some groups associated with the ruling Congress demanded formation of an autonomous State comprising the twin hill districts of Karbi Anglong and Dima Hasao under Article 244 (a) of the Constitution, while anti-Congress groups such as the Hill State Democratic Party (HSDP) wanted creation of a separate State comprising the two hill districts under Article 3. Both groups insisted that if Telangana could be created by the Centre, then people of the two hill districts must also be given statehood
An indefinite curfew was clamped in Diphu, headquarters town of Karbi Anglong Hill district in central Assam, on Wednesday July 31,2013 following widespread violence during an agitation for statehood that left one dead and at least 20 injured. The agitation was spurred by the Centre’s endorsement on Tuesday July 30,2013 of creation of a Telangana State from Andhra Pradesh
