Another row seems to be brewing between the states of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana but this time over certain buildings under the latter’s control in Hyderabad.

The two Telugu states have already locked horns on sharing river water and distributing assets of various institutions.

The Andhra Pradesh government early this month quietly shifted its base to upcoming capital Amaravati but is yet to vacate some buildings.

The Telangana government has urged the joint Governor of the two states to take back the buildings, including those in the secretariat complex, the assembly and the council.

Though Hyderabad was declared joint capital of Telangana and Andhra Pradesh for a period not exceeding 10 years, Andhra Pradesh moved out within two-and-a-half years after the state's bifurcation.
