BRSV activists held protests in Adilabad, Mancherial, Nirmal, and Kumram Bheem Asifabad, accusing the Congress of misleading the public on the Kaleshwaram Lift Irrigation Project. They performed 'jalabhishekam' and 'ksheerabhishekam' to Telangana Thalli, demanding withdrawal of objectionable remarks.

Kavitha criticised the Congress government for failing to fullfill its election promises and arresting those who are questioning its policies.

Addressing a round table conference organized by the Telangana Jagruthi at Press Club with intellectuals, she observed that the statue of Telangana Thalli was the symbol of legacy and cultural pride that the Telangana movement instilled in its people

Speaking to the media at her residence on Friday, Kavitha strongly criticized the gazette notification enforcing the revised design. The directive mandates the installation of statues with the altered design statewide and threatens criminal penalties for non-compliance. “Even the British never imposed such restrictions on Bharat Mata statues during the Indian independence movement. This decision is undemocratic and disrespectful,” she remarked.

Deputy Chief Minister Mallu Bhatti Vikramarka returned to Hyderabad from New Delhi on Thursday. Speaking informally with media personnel in New Delhi earlier, he emphasized that the Congress government was providing better governance compared to the BRS administration. However, he acknowledged that some level of opposition is natural in a democratic setup.

BRS leaders and cadre across the erstwhile Medak washed the statues with milk as a mark of protest.

Former minister Jogu Ramanna performed the ritual at a programme held on the premises of office of the BRS party in Adilabad town.

BRS MLC K Kavitha led the charge in a demonstration at Telangana Bhavan, where she, along with GHMC corporators and local leaders, strongly opposed the redesign. In a symbolic act of defiance of the government orders, she offered milk to the original Telangana Thalli statue installed by the BRS at Telangana Bhavan

"I appeal to BRS cadres to perform Palabhishekam and Panchamrita Abhishekam to cleanse statues of Telangana Thalli existing across the State on Tuesday, as reparation for the sin committed by the Congress and to seek her forgiveness. I also request the party workers and Telangana citizens to change their social media profile pictures to images of the original Telangana Thalli in solidarity," he appealed.

The Assembly and Legislative Council have been adjourned till next Monday. The proceedings commenced in the Assembly on Monday with Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy's statement in the Assembly over the unveiling ceremony of the Telangana Thalli.

BJP official spokesperson NV Subhash said the Congress had promised in its manifesto that it would increase the salaries of ASHA workers and provide job security as soon as it came to power, but so far nothing had been done in that direction.

The State government decided to install a statue that reflects the spirit, culture and history of Telangana.

The Hyderabad traffic police issued a traffic advisory for citizens in connection with the program of unveiling of the statue of Telangana Thalli and the carnival on NTR Marg on Monday between 2 pm and 10 pm.

The Minister, accompanied by protocol officials, visited the former Chief Minister at his residence in Erravelli and extended the invitation on behalf of the government to the event.

He pointed out that the new statue lacked several key features that were present in the original design including its crown. The crown, symbolizing the pride and self-governance of Telangana was gone. The traditional floral festival Bathukamma, which represents the cultural heritage of Telangana, was absent.
