Atal Bihari Vajpayee disrupted dynastic politics: Telangana BJP chief Bandi Sanjay Kumar

Share

HYDERABAD: BJP State president Bandi Sanjay Kumar has urged students, employees, student organisations, people’s organisations and political parties to actively participate in the Nirudyoga Deeksha to be held at Dharna Chowk in Hyderabad on Monday, to pressurise the State government to issue job notifications.

Addressing party leaders on Saturday, he said the dharna was being held to focus on issues of unfair re-allotment of government employees under the zonal system. It would also take up the issues being faced by Intermediate students and unemployed youth committing suicide across the State.

Earlier during the day, he addressed the seminar on ‘Good governance’ at the party office in Nampally on the occasion of former Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee’s birth anniversary. He said that Vajpayee had dedicated 60 years of his life to BJP ideology and the party’s flag. He never resorted to “money politics” which present-day leaders were playing to reach political heights.

“Atal Bihari Vajpayee was sensitive, whereas LK Advani was iron-willed. They both worked together to bring the party to power, disrupting the dynastic politics of the Congress for decades,” he said, adding that Vajpayee had worked with the political leadership of Israel, despite the Congress criticising him to trying to appease minorities.

Union Minister G Kishan Reddy referred to Vajpayee as a great orator, poet and an inspiration. The Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana, airport, port and cellphone connectivity, highway connectivity and other reforms were introduced when Vajpayee was PM, which were being continued by the present PM Narendra Modi.

Not right for Piyush Goyal to mock TRS: Telangana Finance Minister T Harish Rao

Share

SIDDIPET: Finance Minister T Harish Rao said that the Central government is responsible for purchasing any crop grown by farmers in the country and that the BJP-led government, like all previous governments should buy paddy grown by Telangana farmers.

A day after TRS legislators returned from Delhi after failing to get written assurance that the Food Corporation of India (FCI) will procure Kharif rice from the State, Harish Rao lashed out at the Central government while addressing the crowd at various functions he attended in Siddipet on Saturday.

He said that it wasn’t right on the part of Piyush Goyal, Union Minister of Consumer Affairs, Food and Public Distribution, to mock Telangana Ministers saying that they didn’t have any work and were repeatedly coming to Delhi.

He explained that matters of food safety matter fall under the ambit of the Union government, and thus, the State Ministers wanted to explain the plight of farmers.

Harish Rao added that in addition to normal crop cultivation in the district, Siddipet has ample resources for quality seed production and seed processing. He said that Siddipet has many resources and facilities to develop as a seed hub.

The Minister also pointed out that a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) was signed between the Agriculture Market Committee and the Siddipet Degree College to develop skills and increase the income of farmers.

He said that the students pursuing economics in the Government Degree College, Siddipet, will study the price of agricultural commodities and understand the marketing process, enabling them to acquire practical knowledge by observing the market yard and marketing approach.

MP K Prabhakar Reddy, MLC Farooq Hussain, Zilla Praja Parishad Chairperson Veleti Roja Sharma, District Rythu Bandhu Samithi president Vanga Nagireddy and others were also present.

Protesters near Gouravelli project in Telangana’s Siddipet refuse to budge

Share

SIDDIPET: Oustees protesting near the Gouravelli project at Gudatipally village under Akkannapet mandal refused to budge and continued with their agitation, which began on Thursday, demanding that the government pay them the compensation due to them before carrying out developmental works, as mandated by a court order.

Despite the dipping mercury levels, the agitators stay firm at the protest site, forcing the police to perform their duties in shifts. With the help of a few donors, the demonstrators also organised a Vantu-Varpu (cooking in the open) programme.

When the contractor, on the orders from officials, dug up the road from Gudatipally village to Husnabad on Thursday, the farmers levelled the road, allowing the flow of vehicular traffic. Despite the cops resorting to lathicharge against the protestors, including women farmers, and booking 13 ryots for reportedly attacking cops, the oustees refuse to stop the agitation.

Sources say several political parties, public associations and oustees from the Mallannasagar Reservoir have supported the agitations. In addition to the rehabilitation and resettlement (R&R) packages, the authorities should also provide them with double-bedroom houses before carrying out any developmental works in the village, they demand.

Eatala expresses solidarity

BJP leader and Huzurabad MLA Eatala Rajender, on Saturday, expressed solidarity with the farmers who have been protesting for the past three days. He took part in a programme in support of the agitating farmers for a brief period.

Addressing the crowd there, Rajender said that the State government should be sympathetic to the plight of farmers, who have lost everything, and should not be subjected to attacks by the police.

He criticised the TRS led-government for attacking women farmers with sticks even as they demand what is due to them. He said that the government had decided to pay compensation of Rs 6.90 lakh per acre when the plots of land were acquired from the farmers seven years ago.

He also pointed out that many people are yet to receive the compensation promised to them. He said the price of the land has increased to Rs 20 lakh per acre, and questioned the government if any person can still buy plots at the earlier price.

He hit out at Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao saying that while the farmers are protesting, Rao is sleeping peacefully at his farmhouse and Pragathi Bhavan. He said the end of the CM is approaching and TRS will lose power in 2023.

Oustees claim works only to evacuate them

The villagers started the protest on Thursday alleging that the digging of the road by the authorities was intended only to evacuate them from Gudatipally village, which will be submerged by the Gouravelli reservoir.

The protesting oustees say that despite pressure from the State government to remove them from their land, they won’t stop agitating even if the police register multiple cases against them or resort to torture them

Rajamouli: Ram Charan’s intro scene on RRR is sensational

Share


Rajamouli doesn’t often speak about the important scenes in his films prior to their release. But for a change, he has opened up about one particular scene in RRR which he believes will leave the viewers drooling for more and literally induce goosebumps. He revealed that Charan’s introductory scene was shot with as many as 2000 people and it will be a visual spectacle.

“Ram Charan’s character introduction sequence will be one of the best episodes in the film. You will see a total of over 2000 actors in this scene while the main focus is obviously on the protagonist, played by Ram Charan. This scene wasn’t exactly placed for grandeur but it was necessitated by the flow of the proceedings. This particular scene, involving 2000 actors will give a glimpse of what Seetharama Raju character has to offer through the course of the film. This scene will be an absolute stand out. I did one particular episode in Magadheera, featuring Charan and 100 fighters, If you were amused by it, then the Rama Raju introduction scene in RRR will blow you away,” Rajamouli said in the interview.

Well, it appears to be that Charan’s fans are in for a mass feast in RRR and the Rama Raju introduction scene will particularly stand out in the whole film. Needless to say, a brief glimpse of this scene was given in the trailer of the film which was released recently. Charan is seen as a police officer in this scene and it will be high on intensity and action elements.

Adding further about this scene, Rajamoli said “Filming this scene was a challenging task as well. We had to shoot with 2000 actors and all of them were constantly moving, shouting and jostling. It was frantic and fantastic all at the same time. It was one of the toughest shooting experience in the whole filming process.”

RRR, which is promoted as the biggest action drama in Indian cinema is now gearing up for world wide theatrical release on the 7th of January 2022. The film is riding sky high on buzz and anticipation already.

Nagarjuna and Chiranjeevi seek Jagan’s appointment

Share


The government of Andhra Pradesh’s stand on the cinema ticket prices issue has thrown the Telugu film industry and also the theatrical industry into overdrive. Cinema halls across the state are seizing operations at an alarming rate, due to the unfair pricing restrictions that are being imposed by the state government. The situation is very dire and if it continues for another few weeks, we might see theatres seizing operations on a permanent basis. It is high time that Tollywood bigwigs step in to resolve the issue at the earliest. This can’t be taken lightly as Andhra Pradesh market, for a really long time now, has been the strong hold for the Telugu film industry.

Now, it is head that Tollywood bigwigs like Chiranjeevi and Nagarjuna are actually ready to step into action and find an amicable solution to the whole fiasco. Apparently, both Nagarjuna and Chiranjeevi have requested the chief minister of Andhra Pradesh YS Jagan Mohan Reddy’s appointment and are likely to meet with the YCP chief in the next 2-3 days. They are hopeful of securing Jagan’s appointment soon, given the fact that the chief minister shares a very good relationship with Nagarjuna.

Nagarjuna and Chiranjeevi will be discussing about the ongoing ticket prices row with YS Jagan and request him to go easy on the film industry. They will also be proposing a new pricing system that will benefit the distributors and also the state government along with the producers. It is said that the government of Andhra Pradesh is particularly displeased with the film exhibition circuit making a fool out of the taxation slab by selling black tickets and not paying necessary taxes to the state government. The government is focusing on the same issue and it is expected to be the focal point of discussion once the Tollywood delegation meets with YS Jagan later this week or early next week.

The delegation is also likely to meet with the newly appointed cinematography minister of Andhra Pradesh Perni Nani. The new ticket pricing proposal will be delivered to Nani and later to the chief minister YS Jagan.

Ram Charan and Jr NTR open up about the struggles for ‘RRR’

Share


Jr NTR and Ram Charan are eagerly awaiting the theatrical release of RRR. The duo is actively promoting the magnum opus project which is gearing up for theatrical release on the 7th of January 2022. In their latest interview with a national media portal, Jr NTR and Ram Charan opened up about the struggles they had to go through for RRR. They spoke at length about how it is to work with SS Rajamouli.

“To be a Rajamouli’s protagonist you will have to unlearn a lot as an actor and have to mould into the set of specifications that he has. It is a tiring job that demands a lot from you but at the end of the day, it is all worth it. Rajamouli is a master craftsman and working with him is a really rewarding experience. His vision and grit are impeccable. You evolve a lot not just as an actor but also as a person while working with him,” Jr NTR said.

Ram Charan said he always wanted to give the very best for RRR. “For instance, while we were shooting for any particular shot in the film, Rajamouli used to clearly explain each and every nuance that he wanted. I used to emulate the same while filming. INtentionally or unintentionally, I used to add a layer of my own to the particular shot or sequence. But then, I immediately used to go to Rajamouli and check with him if he is okay with my improvisation. I need this assurance and validation. Overconfidence never quite works with me. I want my director to be fully satisfied with my output,” Ram Charan said.

Rajamouli said his idea was always to make an event film after Baahubali. “The idea was to bring two huge superstars for a multistarrer which runs on a fictional note but has a strong layer of underlying emotional connect. That is how RRR happened and these two superstars – Jr NTR and Ram Charan came onboard. They gave their everything for the film.”

RRR is now on course to hit the silver screens on the 7th of January 2022. The film is funded by DVV Entertainments.
