Thank You

I got this from Facebook along with the Telugu commentary from a family friend i know and a person who has a long history of family ties with Communists in Andhra . The picture itself is old.But coming from that person is something we never expected in our circle. It shows times are changing slowly (or i hope so).

ఇలాంటి రంగులు మార్చే ..హిందువుల వల్లే భారతదేశంలో ..హిందూమతం ..నశిస్తున్నది .హిందూ మతం అపహాస్యం అవుతున్నది.
ఇది హిందువులందరికీ అవమానమే ..
హిందువులందరినీ చిరంజీవి అవమానపరిచినట్టే
.హిందువులంటే వెధవలు ..పనికిరానివాళ్ళు చేవ చచ్చిన వాళ్ళు..తమని తాము ప్రేమించుకోవటం తెలీనివాళ్ళు..సొంత వ్యక్త్తిత్వం లేనివాళ్ళు..ఇలా చెప్పుకుంటూ పొతే వందరకాలుగా.....అర్ధాలున్నాయి.

Because of such Hindus (who change their colors) only that Hinduism is getting destroyed in India, Hinduism is becoming a Joke.
This is a insult to all Hindus
Chiranjeevi has insulted all Hindus
Hindus are idiots...They don't know to love themselves , they don't have self respect.. If we go on like this , we can come up with hundreds of interpretations (looking at this picture)

RamaY garu, have you read Andhra nagari by Papineni Sai ?

Yes to Symbolic value. However, Amaravati was in trade/road networks in old times but it is no longer the case. It misses current existing transportation networks. If they want to put more money and develop it is different question.

Current lifeline of AP-Seemandhra is from Srikakulam to Chittoor and Gunthakal to Guntur considering Rail and Road networks. It is appropriate to put Capital at the Center with good transport connections. Capital in the region of Guntur-Tenali-Vijayawada-Eluru is better place and is the most convenient to every body in the state transport-wise. That region is nerve center for same number of years anyway.

Amaravati is good if you are planning for a small and non-commercial capital. it will not have train link but creating access is not that difficult. One thing in coastal AP irrespective of which district you are in, the land is not cheap and will have very good fertile land. To avoid fertile lands you either need to go to extreme corners of Vizag or to Prakasam/Seema.

The challenge to create a capital in Guntur-Vijayawada-Eluru belt is most of the land is a minimum two-crop land if not three crops per annum. There are only few pockets of dry lands in this region.

For some reasons, Amaravati even though is on the banks of Krishna and beautiful etc, there is substantial government land. There are lot of smaller roads to Amravati from Vijayawada, Krosuru, Sattenapalli, Guntur. Muppalla also will become a town from being just a mandal.

In addition you can put nice bridges over the Krishna to Vijayawada-Hyd highway towards Jaggaipeta. The areas on Krishna district side of river Krishna are developed and already conjusted. Amravati comes on the Guntur dt. side of the river but not as developed. Even though this is all river bed these are still high lands at this time.

The idea behind Amaravati as capital is to leave big cities like Vijayawada and Guntur untouched and create a small capital with a lot of road and metro access to Guntur, Vijayawada and also cut through Jaggaipeta to Hyd without touching Vijayawada. It will be like Ahmedabad-Gandhinagar type stuff.

Not a bad idea for a fertile state like AP. The important things needed is more access roads to main roads to create development. It is very symbolic city and symbolism is badly needed to remind the commercial/EJized mindset to think about their glorious past.

Amareswar Temple has a very tall Shiv linga. I have been there three times before 1999. I don't know how the town is now.

If you actually see access wise analogy, Hyderabad was never on the main route either by train or road. All that was built are because it is a capital. Warangal/Kazipet/Hanumakonda is really a good location for a tri-city type development in TG as it will have good train access and comes on Chennai-Delhi route.

Andhra Pradesh capital in Amaravati?

HYDERABAD: The new capital city of Andhra Pradesh will be built around the ancient town of Amaravati, once home to the powerful Satavahana dynasty, a senior minister and highly-placed government sources said.

Dotted with numerous Buddhist relics and a famous stupa erected during emperor Ashoka's time, the ancient town has abundant government land needed to build a new city, revenue department officials said.

With chief minister N Chandrababu Naidu keen on developing a new city on both sides of the Krishna river, officials zoomed in on Amaravati after realising that price of land in Mangalagiri, Babu's earlier choice, was too high.

"Land between Guntur and Vijayawada is fertile and the prices are way too high, so we suggested Amravati and it has been accepted," said a senior government official, privy to the latest decision.

Plans are afoot to link a few mandals in Krishna and Guntur districts, spread on either side of the river, with a six to eight lane bridge between Achampet mandal in Guntur and Nandigama in Krishna district.

Another bridge will also be built between Kanchikacherla in Krishna district and Amravati in Guntur district, officials who are working on the blueprint said.

Not just that, authorities are also mulling to improve connectivity between Vijayawada and the new capital by constructing a bridge between Gollapudi and Mangalagiri.

"The bridge has been sanctioned, and now the work will begin," an official added.

Once the bridges are constructed, the time to travel from Vijayawada and the new capital will be vastly reduced. Earlier, chief minister Naidu said the capital would be constructed between Vijayawada and Guntur around Mangalagiri.

However considering that land acquisition could pose serious problems, with cost hovering around Rs 15 crore per acre, revenue officials zeroed in on Amaravati, located about 35 km north-west of Guntur.

Officials said AP government has 10,929 acres in Amaravati mandal, 16,000 acres in Achampet mandal, and 6,000 acres in Tadikonda.

"Work to build the capital will start from Tadikonda. Currently prices in these areas are hovering around Rs 10 to 20 lakh per acre," one official said.

Sources said apart from government land, if required private land will also be acquired.

The revenue department is working on the compensation package, in case it acquires additional land.

Plans are also underway to link the proposed ring road in Guntur to Nuzivid in Krishna district.

"We are firm about the capital and the location will certainly cover Guntur and Krishna districts. The formal announcement will be made soon," a minister told TOI.

Apart from developing the city on both sides of the river, the government is also looking at operating sea planes in the river Krishna.

Does anyone has any idea about this strategy? Every inch of land/water/air of Guntur and Krishna districts will be pure gold. Above all, the access to Nalgonda and Khammam districts of TG will be fast and furious so that those districts can develop industrially and agriculturally once Polavarm is done.

My suspicion is Kondapalli will become bigger Rly station. Basically they are avoiding the main cities of Vijayawada and Guntur and constructing a whole new infrastructure.

Let's look at this way, ring-road can be Guntur-Kondapalli-Nuzivid or Guntur-Amarvati-Paritala*-Nuzvid, either way Amaravati becomes a few miles from this proposed road.

*Paritala is another place which made Nizams rich. It was funding from Coastal made Hyderabad. Deja-vu

Coastal Andhra people are obsessed with investing on real estate. It is like everyone wants to invest on real estate which driving the prices high. Those who sell the land are the ones mostly strugling with addictions - gambling, alcohol etc. Unfortunately, this adds little value to Indian GDP in terms of job creation. How can be this ended?

I have been hearing Nuzividu - Hanuman junction will be made capital and Pawan Kalyan will support TDP for the recently concluded elections, for past 12 months.

From all the capital news/rumors, to me this Amaravati news looks more plausible. It will kick start industries in the dry lands. Infrastructural advancements are decent in Godavaris and Vizag/Kakinada will provide a center for NA region. To keep the capital in the center but provide arm of development to south, Amaravati looks a possible and cheaper option. These are though on the banks of river they are still uplands.

The dry lands of Godavari and Vizag will be covered with Polavaram. The development has to start from portions of Guntur towards Seema.

This is what happens if instead of governance, Telangana leaders and government continue doing anti-Andhra or anti-nonTelangana dramabaazi. If Stupidity continues they can create it as UT. Remember, KCR used to propagate a theory that Modi is making HYD as UT.

Order curbs Telangana powers: KCR

Hyderabad: The latest circular by the Centre states that the Governor will take a final call on all matters pertaining to the law and order machinery including postings of officers.

According to Telangana Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao, these instructions will go against the principles of independence of the state government in matters of law and order, which as per the statute, is vested with state government.

Section 8 of the AP Reorganisation Act states: “The responsibility of the Governor shall extend to matters such as law and order, internal security and security of vital installations and management and allocation of government buildings in the common capital area. In discharge of the functions, the Governor shall, after consulting the Council of Ministers of the state of Telangana, exercise his individual judgment as to the action to be taken. If any question arises whether any matter is or is not a matter as respects which the governor is under this sub-section required to act in the exercise of his individual judgment, the decision of the Governor in his discretion shall be final, and the validity of anything done by the Governor shall not be called in question on the ground that he ought or ought not to have acted in exercise of his individual judgement.”

For the Governor to exercise these special powers, the Centre has already appointed two advisers (A.P.V.N. Sharma and A.K. Mohanty) to assist him.

The Circular (No. 12012/05/2014-SR) sent by the joint secretary to Mr Rajeev Sharma, chief secretary to the Telangana government, is as follows:

Governor to get reports on law and order in city

“In order to ensure that the provisions regarding the special responsibility of the Governor is implemented smoothly vis-a-vis the Government of Telangana, the following amendments to the state business transaction rules are proposed:

(1) The Governor shall have power to call for any record or information or decision of the Council of Ministers or any authority relating to the responsibilities envisaged under Section 8 of the AP Reorganisation Act, 2014. The Commissioners of Police and the SP of Ranga Reddy district shall furnish periodical reports of law and order to the Governor in addition to special reports on all grave and specially grave crimes in the common capital area.

(2) The Governor shall have the power to issue a direction in accordance with the provisions of law or regulation.

(3) The Governor will be assisted by adviser/s appointed by the government of India. The Governor shall allot the responsibilities between the advisors as deemed fit from time to time.

(4) For the purposes of matters falling under law and order, internal security and security of vital installations as well as the two Police Commissionerates currently operating in the common capital area i.e. the Hyderabad and the Cyberabad and commissionerates, and for the district of Ranga Reddy, the home secretary of the state of Telangana shall brief the Governor on all matters mentioned above as well as those that have special significance and the Governor may convey his views which shall be placed before the appropriate authority. Governor’s advice shall prevail.

(5) A special cell headed by an officer not below the rank of inspector general in both the commissionerates and with a senior officer in the office of SP, Ranga Reddy, shall be set up to deal with hate crimes and crimes related to extortion or any other specified crime and ensure speedy trial; wide publicity would be given to the contact numbers of the officers of this cell so as to enable citizens to contact them directly.

(6) A special cell to deal with issues concerning internal security and security of vital installations with a senior officer in-charge shall be set up in both the commissionerates and in the office of SP, Ranga Reddy.

The special cell shall also identify sensitive establishments/institutions and report to the Governor through the government of Telangana on the adequacy or otherwise of the security arrangements of the said establishment/installation. The cell shall undertake a review of the existing security provided by the Special Protection Force (SPF), Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) etc. and suggest additional measures, if considered necessary to ensure fool proof security of the notified installations. The Governor may suggest measures to strengthen the security arrangements based on the information made available and the threat perceptions, which shall be binding. A nodal officer from the senior management cadre shall be appointed in all the notified vital installations, who shall be responsible for furnishing periodical review reports on the security status of the installation and for implementation of the recommendations of the special cell.

Powers to order Telangana for probe

(7) A police service board comprising DGP Telangana and the Commissioner of Police, Hyderabad and Cyberabad should be set up exclusively for the state of Telangana in context of law and order administration of the common capital area of Hyderabad to handle the transfer and postings of all officers including DCPs, ACPs and SHOs.

The police force of Hydera-bad and Cyberabad commissionerates shall be a joint force comprising of elements from Andhra and Telangana on fair share basis in higher supervisory posts i.e. Deputy Commissio-ners of Police, Addl Com-missioners of Police and Commissioners of Police. In case of officers drawn from residual state of AP, a Police Service Board on the lines of Telangana will propose a panel of names. The Governor shall have the power to approve and suggest such changes as he deems fit as per his best judgment.

(8) In case the Governor considers it necessary in view of the situation, as per his best judgment, to requisition additional forces for deployment, he would ask the state government to examine this issue and communicate the decision to the Governor. This decision will be subject to review under Section 8 of the Act and the Governor’s decision shall be final after such review.

(9) The Governor can call for a report or assessment from the state government of Telangana on any acts of omission and commission by any official and direct the government to conduct an enquiry and take appropriate action as per law.

Authority to protect property rights

(10) In case of exigencies, the Governor can call for a re-port or assessment from the state government of Telangana upon which he can ask the state government specifically for reallocation of staff on a temporary basis in case of any contingency.

(11) The management and allocation of buildings to all the departments of both the successor states shall be decided by the Governor on the recommendations of the Commi-ttee of Senior Officers constituted for the purpose keeping in view the requirement and availability of accommodation. The decision of the Governor shall be final.

(13) To ensure the safety of property of the common capital of Hyderabad, the collectors of Hyderabad and Ranga Reddy districts as well as the commissioner of GHMC shall set up grievance cells for the redressal of grievances and affected parties shall have the right to represent themselves. The Governor can issue necessary directions to the officials of the state government of Telangana for the protection of the property rights of the aggrieved.

PM Acts on Naidu SoS, Seeks to Clip Telangana Wings

Even as the Telangana government is going after “unauthorised” properties in Hyderabad, the Centre on Sunday sent a communication to it, proposing amendments to the existing business rules under Section VIII (A) of the AP Reorganisation Act-2014, investing the Governor with powers to deal with law & order in the State capital.

Interestingly, the Centre stepped in just a couple of days after Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu shot off a missive to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, seeking his immediate intervention for the “protection of properties and interests of Seemandhra people living in Hyderabad.”

In capital clash, Naidu’s a ‘guest’

Hyderabad, July 7: Chandrababu Naidu is “just a guest in Hyderabad”, Telangana’s ruling TRS has said and accused the Andhra Pradesh chief minister of trying to “usurp control” of the joint state capital in connivance with the Centre.

“Chandrababu Naidu is our guest and can stay in Hyderabad as long as he wants. The Telangana government is ready to provide him all hospitality but also ready to face problems created by him by exploiting his Delhi connections,” said K. Tarakarama Rao, Telangana minister and son of chief minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao.

Dasari · Post by **Dasari** » 11 Jul 2014 20:02

This is not the first time land submerging happened when a dam is built. Both Nagarjun Sagar and Srisailam projects displaced villages and they were compensated. Even T cannot build their own projects without submerging tribal villages.

In this case it is different. To keep the regional hatred keep boiling, KCR and TRS are acting like sadists. There is still lot of restraint from AP side from any retaliation due to Hyderabad. This was the story for the last 10 years. Every politician from AP has stake in Hyderabad. Some are trying to protect themselves even from a small dent happening to their shiny car from a wayward stone thrown by T protagonists. As long as this continues, KCR will be handled with kids gloves. But he should not assume that this will continue for long time. Sooner or later, AP is going to cut the umbilical card with Hyderabad. Perhaps KCR knows this dynamics very well and expects the first big punch from AP, with pent up anger, to come in terms of curtailed power distribution when the five year agreement of forced power sharing expires, plunging T into darkness. He knows that would be catastrophic for his political survival and trying very hard to avert that situation by building power plants at war footing. But knowing the ground conditions of project delays, he better be advised not be too cocky and not overplay the andhra hatred tune.

We're glad Parliament approved the amendments to AP reorg bill. This is perhaps the first positive thing happened to AP in the midst of long running saga of setbacks and humiliation to the people of AP. Still a long way to go before the long cherished project is completed. It is very curious to see when this cat and mouse game will be reversed, as I'm pretty sure it is more of 'when'.

Basically to get more money as compensation for backwater which can submerge some areas belonging to those states.

Coming to Telanaga however they is no logic. They want to kick people who weren't in Telangana before 1956. But they want to keep Badhrachalam area which got moved to Khammam district from Godavari district in 1958 I guess.

Instead of kicking out Badhrachalam out of Telangana, TRS wants to do Bandh and go to court after Polavaram bill was passed in Parliament today.

They didn't want Telangana not to have prominent temple town. It will fall fully into MIM and EJ hands. Wanted to keep connection between Ramadas who built the temple to Telangana.

Also the lands to sustain the temple are in AP.

--In 2004 I had started a thread called Naidunomics where I had said Naidu's fault was to concentrate all development in Hyderabad to the detriment of other regions in AP.

In some ways that thread proved prophetic as KCR and his goons got thinking they could get the golden goose of Hyderabad and fianlly did. But then am reminded of Gurzada Appa Rao's slogan"Deshamu ante matti kaadu, deshamu ante manushulu!" State doesnt mean land, State means people. In this context the wealth of Hyderabad is due to the people and not just the location. Others made same mistake last century.

may be bad translation but apt in context.

No, Badrachalam temple town still will be part of TG. To facilitate the connectivity between TG and the Badrachalam town that is surrounded by mandals of AP, they left few villages of one mandal( i don't recall which one) with TG.

These hartals remind me of another bifurcation - Bihar and Jharkhad. Jharkhand wanted out, it had very rich mineral resources, very industralised and area same as Bihar with 1/3rd the population. Jharkhand was suppose to do very good. Both states did bad initially due to lack of leadership. Then Bihar picked up. Jharkhand today is a state of Bandh. If you visit Ranchi, chances are the day you land, it will be a bandh. Needless to say, JH is sliding down, while BH is rising (in spite of the lopsided resource distribution).

That is what is called leadership. Why should CBN or any AP leader join the ranks of KCR? I pray they should never join this crappy Andhra Vs TG trashy race-hood.

All these revenue deficits, not having immediate infra is all short term. There is still good leadership and also decent bureaucrats who will plan and develop AP to new heights and are on the right path.

Few observations:

Come what may, Poloavaram will not stop. It was one of the dreams of those who want to link Indian rivers. BJP was always for it. They want even an ambitious linking of Ganga and Kavery.

Every IT shop in HYD (local and multi national) are either in the process of opening a branch in Vizag or already there. My bro's company where he is senior executive was asked to create a team immediately to start operations from Vizag.

There are few farmers in TG (my acquaintances) who even agree that CBN can do loan waivers but KCR cannot do.

All my sources tell the AP development is very keenly watched by TG commoners.

In essence, this elite TG BS will not last long. Why should AP leaders try to taste the same shit as a retaliation ?

They don't need to use the 'bazaar' language of KCR, but can bring out the facts. This requires honesty and courage. Sitting in Hyderabad, dreaming about coming back to power in TG, CBN has none of those although he is a very good administrator and power broker. He vows that he will not leave Hyderabad until TDP comes back to power - what an assuring stance for the people of AP. For example, if he asks extra power for AP, he needs to balance it by completing the sentence with similar request for T, instead of fighting tooth and nail the ridiculous power distribution arrangement that is in place now. These guys don't join the ranks of KCR, not out of good will, but for the political and commercial interests. Otherwise they would have nipped the separatist movement at its buds.

All these revenue deficits, not having immediate infra is all short term. There is still good leadership and also decent bureaucrats who will plan and develop AP to new heights and are on the right path.

When we say short term pains, let us not fool ourselves. We are talking about 10-20 years. If all the states are trying to run a marathon to take the respective states and the country forward, AP state is 5-10 miles behind the starting line. First, he should stop his dream of building mega capital, but do things in this term that are realistic. His real estate coterie already made huge fortunes on speculation, and he should take a pause now. I agree with you that he should seize the momentum on Polavaram and complete it in this term. If we miss this chance, it will languish for another 40 years. Second, with aviation ministry (the only ministry) in his hands, scale up the international airport at Vizag and divert some traffic from Hyderabad to AP. This would accelerate the migration of IT industry to AP. Instead I feel he is trying to play for the gallery. But I will give another 1-2 years before I give up on him, as I still respect his administrative skills.

A first-of-its-kind university dedicated to conserving cows is coming up in Guntur.

International Society for Krishna Consciousness (Iskcon) has planned to set up a cow university near Kondaveedu where it is constructing a prestigious Krishna temple. The very idea behind the setting up of a cow university is to protect aging cows while providing employment to illiterate village youth.

"This is for the first time in the world that a university to teach how to earn while conserving disappearing cows is being set up," Iskcon representative Ravindra Krishna told TOI.

He said that they would be launching a gosala (shelter for cows) costing Rs1 crore at Kondaveedu on July 13 and works for setting up the university would begin soon.

"Cow is a wonderful gift given by God to the humankind. It would keep helping us earn till its death," he explained.

He also said that they would teach how to make medicines and other value addition products even from cowdung and the urine of an aged cow, adding that a youth could make at least Rs 30,000 per month if he could acquire 20 old cows which were being sent to slaughterhouses.

He said that Guntur district was chosen for the project because farmers here were using high quantities of pesticides causing severe damage to the health of humankind. He said that such pesticides could be replaced with bio-pests made of cow products.

Iskcon South India chief, Satyagopinath Das said that Puri Jagannath Rathyatra would be conducted in Guntur from Iskcon temple to Sri Venkateswara Vignana Mandiram on July 14.

Now congress is playing politics by opposing their own ordinance on Polavaram. Jaipal Reddy, one of the architects of the AP reorg bill, is having hectic consultations with mafia to oppose it. If they don't pass a whip to vote for the bill ( basically unofficially asking its members to vote against it) congress along with sp/bsp/bjd/rjd/tmc (sp/tmc is opposing it to embarass BJP) will defeat the bill in Rajya sabha. If it happens, we don't know whether the govt will call for a combined session or lose heart to proceed further on this. If they do call combined session of LS and RS, and if the entire opposition gang up on them, then BJP needs AIADMK support to pass the bill. Otherwise, the bill is doomed. To avoid setting up unenecessary precedence for the rest of the term, it is possible that govt may not introduce bill on Polavaram, if they have any doubts on passage of the bill.

Congress got 0 MPs, 0 MLAs, 0 local posts in elections this year so they want to save the party in Telangana at least so one-legged warrior is making fuss.

Hero Chirajeevi is Rajya Sabha member of Congress. He will be Savior

or BJP may do Congress way of passing bill - cut video feed and pass.

Tamilnadu with DMK and AIADMK has to support as they rely on Krishna waters to for drinking, at least in Chennai.

I support this move. Hyderabad should go its own way. wherever that might be. and Let Telangana go its own way without the incessant magnetism of Hyderabad.
