The political activity of Kalvakuntla Kavitha, president of Telangana Jagruthi, appears to be gaining noticeable traction on the ground, drawing considerable public attention in recent days.
After receiving relief from a Delhi court in the excise policy case, Kavitha has become increasingly active in public and political engagements. Her renewed activism is reportedly receiving a strong response from sections of the public.
In comparison, some observers feel that senior leaders of the Bharat Rashtra Samithi, including her father K. Chandrasekhar Rao, her brother K. T. Rama Rao, and party leader T. Harish Rao, have not been generating the same level of visible public engagement recently.
Kavitha’s detention during a hunger strike in Khammam on Tuesday further intensified the political spotlight on her. The protest was organised over the demolition of houses in Velugumatla, an issue that has sparked debate across the state.
Police took Kavitha into custody in the early hours of Tuesday while she was staging an indefinite hunger strike at Ambedkar Bhavan. The protest was aimed at seeking justice for families affected by the demolition of nearly 600 houses in Velugumatla on February 24.
Authorities later shifted Kavitha and several supporters to Hyderabad to prevent potential law-and-order problems. After reaching the Telangana Jagruthi central office in Banjara Hills, Kavitha announced that she would continue her indefinite fast until the government assured housing for the displaced families.
During the police action, a scuffle reportedly broke out between protesters and constables, leaving several people injured while some others fainted in the commotion. Kavitha demanded immediate medical treatment for those affected.
Leaders of Telangana Jagruthi condemned the police action, questioning the manner in which women leaders were detained and alleging that due procedures were not followed.
Kavitha stated that the protest would continue until the district administration assured that house-site pattas and Indiramma Housing Scheme units would be allotted to the affected families at the same location where their houses were demolished.
“The state government and the ruling Congress leaders will face the curse of the affected women for the injustice done to them,” she said.
Kavitha’s aggressive intervention and decision to undertake an indefinite hunger strike have brought her back into the political spotlight at a time when the BRS leadership has largely remained less visible in mass movements.
