"kt-rama-rao"

More than a week after the unsavoury incidents in Lagacherla in his own constituency of Kodangal, Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy finally spoke in public about the village, which has been in the limelight for opposing his plans for a pharma village project there.

TGSPDCL on Tuesday claimed that it had not started any new practice to burden the consumers and that as per norms, apartments and commercial complexes were required to get separate dedicated transformers.

The Congress government's attempt to put Telangana Digital Media former director and social media activist Dileep Konatham failed miserably after the magistrate denied to remand him in judicial custody.

"As Revanth Reddy is the only person who is well-experienced in carrying moneybags, the Congress is unlikely to replace him as they need him," he said sarcastically, adding that the Congress completing its full term in Telangana would only benefit the BRS for the next two to three elections.

He questioned the Congress’s inconsistency in criticising the BJP’s association with industrialist Gautam Adani while remaining silent on similar collaborations involving Congress-led state

The Indus Entrepreneurs (TiE) will host the 13th edition of TiEcon Kerala, the state's largest entrepreneurial convention, on December 4 and 5 at the Grand Hyatt Hotel, Kochi. The event is set to gather over 1,000 participants, including CEOs, startup founders, industry experts, and thought leaders from diverse sectors.

As the ruling Congress is going hammer and tongs in accusing the involvement of Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS), a close look at the developments before and after the attack reveal a different narrative.

The BRS working president condemned the Congress government’s inaction in procuring cotton and paddy from farmers, forcing them to sell their produce at distress prices.

The farmers worried that the Congress government would put them in jail by filing multiple cases until they handed over lands. However, Rama Rao assured than that the BRS would help get bail by talking to expert lawyers.

A colony of 286 double-bedroom houses was built in Kyathanpalli at a cost of Rs 15.16 crore, and was officially inaugurated by the then MAUD Minister KT Rama Rao in October 2023. Thousands of applications from low-income individuals were received, but beneficiary selection was delayed following the announcement of the December Assembly elections.

Speaking outside Sangareddy prison on Friday after meeting 16 arrested villagers, Rama Rao alleged that the arrests were politically motivated to suppress dissent. He claimed, “Innocent people are being targeted simply for supporting the BRS. The police, in collusion with Tirupati Reddy and local Congress leaders, are intimidating villagers and their families with threats of violence if they oppose them.”

Of the 21 persons who have been arrested, at least five belong to the Congress party

Villagers have been fighting for justice for about nine months, yet neither the Chief Minister nor his officials had addressed their grievances. "Instead, they conspired to acquire land forcibly by creating a law and order problem," he said.
