With the rather irrational bifurcation of Andhra Pradesh, the politics in Telugu regions have undergone a seismic change which is unable to even imagine under normal circumstances. The arch political rivals are now trying to wave white flags at each other. 
Now it is the turn of AP CM Chandrababu Naidu and his protégé Ramoji Rao’s bête noire Undavalli Arun Kumar who seems to be in reconciliation mode with TDP regime for reasons which are unclear.  
During a meeting recently Undavalli praised Chandrababu saying he is the right person to lead a state like AP which is facing many challenges post division of the state and added that he has the mettle to lead from the front. 
However, he sounded a note of caution over special status and proposed capital region saying Naidu has to be careful about. With Congress getting vanished as of now and no scope to get close to Jagan given his attitude, many veterans are showing a neutral stance towards Chandrababu off late.

The Telangana government plans to install at least one lakh closed circuit television (CCTV) cameras in Hyderabad as a part of its efforts to make Telangana safest and secure state in the country. This was announced in the state’s first full-fledged budget for 2015-16 presented in the state assembly on Wednesday by Finance Minister E. Rajender. 
He said all the cameras will be connected to the proposed command and control centre of the police. This is expected to be the biggest project of its kind in the country and is aimed at ensuring round-the-clock international standard surveillance system and strengthening security in this tech hub, which witnessed few terror attacks during the last eight years. 
The CCTV cameras will be installed in the limits of both Hyderabad and the adjacent Cyberabad police commissionerate, which covers the Information Technology hub of Cyberabad, home to many global giants including Microsoft and Google. 
The CCTV project is expected to help police to map every inch of the capital city, which houses several vital defence and research installations. The CCTV cameras will be installed at public places such as places of worship, educational institutions, bus stops, malls, hotels and railway stations. 
In December, Hyderabad Commissioner of Police M. Mahendar Reddy on Monday had said that 10,000 cameras will be installed at a cost of Rs.600 crore. He stated that the technology will act as a force multiplier and help in checking crime and violation of traffic rules. 
He had also said that by using the existing CCTV cameras, the city police solved 90 percent of the crimes in the last six months.
