Spirit of Telangana - Where did you go?

This Labor day Long weekend, I wanted to be in my room relaxing to prepare for the on-call work week. My weekend started with movies like Placebo, Parched and ended with songs of Maabhoomi Sandhyakka. I wonder if there are any good old words remained for her voice. I loved her songs and voice since childhood. So, I thought I would end this weekend with her songs before starting preparations for weekdays. Her song 'Re la Re Re la Re Telangana Tevaale' paved way deep into my thoughts. Though the dream of Telangana Statehood has got into reality, there is something still holding back to be happy. In this song we sing, 'Aadivaaseelu aadela Telangana tevaale'. Not Aadivasis, but we danced getting telangana state keeping aadivasis life at stake and when we talk about aadivasis, organizing meetings for aadivasis, the Telangana Government arrest, warn us. Isn't the 'Raithaanga poraatam' the essence of the Telangana Revolution? But, why still the Farmers suicides are increasing in number? Where are the clearance of loans, subsidies and an action plan? When did the last time Agriculture minister talked about farmers problems and solutions? Leaving this, when did any minister except KTR, Harish rao talked about their departments? When did education minister talked about Telangana's Education policy? and what is our health minister doing for Telangana's Health?

I am disappointed because, I am noticing the mission kakatiya, the dream of every Telanganite involving in much of corruption, their contractors and their names. I am unhappy because, I see Mallanna Sagar victims fighting for their rights and government paying for their land but not their livelihood (present, future) in the money given in crores to international sports winners after winning the competitions. I am unhappy because, In the agenda of Telangana government, there is suppression, Green hunt kind of operations, chandi yagam, vaasthu. Leaving the fact about dalit CM, what is the percentage of dalits, Minorities in the cabinet and where is the Women minister in the cabinet Mr. CM and why the women ministry to the TDP goon joined TRS in 2014. Stating the sufficient funds in 2014, why are we in deficit now? KTR is bringing (as per news) Amazon, Google, etc, etc, but Where is the primary, higher education policy and policy for Technical Institutes in Telangana to build skills to fill the positions in the companies? Still, Government schools in Telangana are in need of basic infrastructure. There is a saying, 'Teach how to fish but not give fish'. What would be the worth of 2 bed room house when there is no proper roof  for a government school? Isn't it the mark of a wrong, inefficient policy when you give few lakh rupees for women's marriage but not for their empowerment(health, education, livelihood). One more reason for my disappointment, the Division of districts which can benefit the administration has been done according to the political benefits of your political party but not for the people. Warangal, Hanamkonda and no jangaon, Adilabad division are such examples.

I am  hopeless because, I realized the basis of telangana formation is what it is! Telangana as a state but not what we fought for. Projects, speeches are definitely there on the papers as needed but not how it has to be. The habit of seeing what not in papers, may be making me disappointed about Telangana unlike others. But, could not do anything just sitting here writing this post wondering where did Spirit of Telangana in me, my people go? where are those voices, those songs that inspired us, that showed the reality of Telangana, That stood for the people and their rights? where did we go?

I Love Sindhu

I grew with her, i played with her, I read with her, learnt from her, fought with her, cursed her yet she never left me behind in hardships. She is not only my mother, not at all lone my grand mother. She is both, mother of all mothers, a real essence of Motherhood. I wonder Motherly Love has described just from her. Though my mom is my first teacher, she is the best one. She is My father, GrandFather who never let me go down even in my thoughts ever inspiring. Though my father taught me stories of life, she showed me what real life is. She is my never breaking companion who taught me friendship, love and passion. When I followed it she gave me the worst situations to face, hated her because of this. yet smiled at me with a sigh of deep relief which I never understood then. She poked me for my incompetency. So,Insulted her all alone my life not giving a thought why am I. She left me with so many wounds without letting me know she is on her death bed. I hated her for cutting my wings t...

Been 10 years- My Story

# Been10Years There is this girl suddenly started experiencing difficulties to get up and walk at some instants. One day after school suddenly she couldn't get up. Tried hard but didn't succeed in getting up. Didn't understand why. Her father came to pick her up after school as usual but had to wait today.
