Right after the formation of Telangana, people started competing for virtually everything to bag the top honours in various fields. KCR led Telangana Government decided to celebrate first anniversary of Telangana formation by honouring celebrities in 18 categories giving Telangna awards.
Though there was lukewarm response from many who were averse to go through the form filling process, many however started heavy lobbying through ministers,MLAs,MPs etc seeking recommendation letters.
Many feel with this the very purpose of honouring merit will be lost. An MLC teacher said “Most applicants for the best teacher awards are coming to us on the ground that they took active part in the TS agitation since 2009. Though we are trying to convince them that these awards are not about the agitation, they refuse to see the point and are demanding awards,”
