Fast-unto-death by Congress MP L Rajagopal and several other leaders, pressing for a unified Andhra Pradesh continued on Wednesday even as Chiranjeevi-led Praja Rajyam Party (PRP) came under pressure from its MLAs to end its support for separate Telangana.

Rajagopal's hunger strike in Vijayawada entered the third day as he vowed to continue his fast till the bifurcation process came to a halt. "There is massive awareness and support for a unified Andhra Pradesh. We should promote it further. My fast would continue until this process (division of Andhra) came to an end. Even after that we shall promote the unity of Telugu speaking people," Rajagopal said.
