Hyderabad, Monday 07 December 2009: Barring minor incidents, the 48-hour Telangana bandh called by TRS demanding separate statehood for the region, remained largely peaceful on the second day today.

Suspected bandh supporters burnt two school buses in Secunderabad here, Police Commissioner B Prasada Rao said. A passenger train was halted at Khazipet station in Warangal district following a bomb threat call and searches were on.

Normal life was disrupted in the region as the Andhra Pradesh State Road Transport Corporation (APSRTC) suspended its services fearing attacks by bandh supporters while TRS activists and Telangana supporters continued their demonstrations in various Telangana districts.

Meanwhile, police launched a campaign in Osmania University, which has emerged as a nerve-centre for the statehood movement, to ensure that law and order is maintained inside the campus here.

“We have to take appropriate action.
