Creation of states just based on ethnic considerations should be heavily discouraged. Dams and the land it serves should be part of the same state.

Telangana..a train wreck situation...
Any creation of Telangana will create a major ethnic conflict among the Telugu speaking people. The river is upstream, and if Hyderabad is also a part of Telangana, the rest of Andhra will have nothing much. Think of the annual begging that Tamil Nadu has to do to get a few drops of water from a dam that is 60 kms away from it's border. Just like Karnataka, the new Telangana will have newly formed agricultural areas and the water will go there instead of those other Telugu people downstream. Why would they spend money maintaining a dam for the other ethnic group?
