108 facts to show why telangana?



1) Catchment area of Krishna Basin
Rayalaseema      18%
Andhra                 13%
Telangana           69%

    Allocation of Krishna water as per tribunal recommendation=
Rayalaseema    16%
Andhra               49%
Telangana         35%

   Actual utilization
Rayalaseema      13%
Andhra                 87%
Telangana            less than 1%

2)  Godavari river catchment area
            Telangana   79% (1170 TMC)
            Andhra         21% (310 TMC)
           
      Utilization of Godavari waters
            Andhra         23%   (320 TMC i.e. 110% of allotted)
            Telangana   9.6 % (143 TMC)       
                             - 405 TMC is being diverted to Andhra via Polavaram project

3)   Total loss of water share of Telangana merging with Andhra is 1125 TMC.
      With estimation of 1 TMC to serve 10,000 acres, total cultivation land   
     Telangana lost  is 11, 25,000 acres.

4)   There are 10 districts in Telangana, 9 in Andhra, 4 in Rayalaseema. Out of
      these 7 districts in Telangana, 3 in Andhra and 1 in Rayalaseema are  
      considered severely backward districts which means 70% of districts in  
      Telangana are backward while in Andhra - 35% and in Rayalaseema  - 25%


5)   65% of Industries in Telangana are owned by Andhra. One Telangana
      person (close relative of Sri Jaipal Reddy) tried to start industry in west
      Godavari, he was harassed and tormented so much that he gave it up half
      way through.

6)   All Telangana region CM's combined tenure is hardly 6 years.

            - SLBC (30 TMC) not taken up
            - SLBC beyond Musi river (20 TMC) not taken up
            - RDS extension (10 TMC) not taken up
            - LIS to high level areas in Mahabubnagar not taken up
            - Bheema LIS 20 TMC under construction for many years

      Seemandhra side:
-           Telugu Ganga project (29 TMC) completed
-           SRBC (19 TMC) completed
-           KC canal extension completed (10 TMC)
-           Upland areas Brahmamgari matham reservoir (10 TMC) completed
-           SRBC beyond Gorakallu (20TMC) under construction
-           Puchintala evaporation losses (5 TMC) under construction
-           Veligonda not recommended project (40 TMC) almost completed
-           Handrineeva sujala sarvanthi not recommended (38 TMC) almost completed
-           Galerunagari sujala sravanthi not recommended (38 TMC) is under construction

9)  Pothireddypadu regulator was originally created for drinking water to Chennai  
     with 5 TMC. Gradually 5 projects were ‘piggy backed’ & augmented to canal.
     In the  name of Chennai drinking water, Rayalaseema leaders wanted to take   
     away  the entire waters of Srisailam reservoir.

10) Veligonda project is being constructed on war footing basis. This will drain
      60 TMC of water from Srisailam. This project is not allotted (water share by
     tribunal)  and do not have clearance till now.

11) Handrineeva Srujana Sravanthi, not allotted not cleared project is going on
      war footing now. It will run through chittoor via Anantapur.

      Clearances and permissions never started. This would have provided 30
     TMC for 3 Lakh acres in Nalgonda district.

13) Manuguru thermal power station proposed by Central govt due to proximity of
      coal mines was lobbied to be shifted to Vijayawada, transporting coal from
      telangana (singareni). This led to shortage of power due to pump set usage
      by Telangana farmers.



14) Ramagundam super thermal power station (2500 MW) transferred to NTPC,
      crippling power ownership of state by which we get only 27% of power
      produced and rest is pooled in national grid.

15) Dummugudem Hydal power station never even started construction – this
      remained a promise on paper.

16) Icchampalli power (975 MW) project never started.

17) Power regulatory mechanisms – 220 KV, 132 KV, 32 KV substations and
       lines never realized in Telangana region.

18) If Mumbai is not a free-zone, Delhi is not a freezone, Kolkatta is not a
      freezone, Chennai is not a freezone, Pune is not a freezone … why should
      Hyderabad be a freezone ? Andhra enthusiasts hailing Hyd being a freezone,
      were demanding entire Telangana should be freezone.

19) Telangana covers 41.7% area, Seemandhra 58.3% area. Telangana has
      40.5% population, Seemandhra 59.5%. Telangana revenue is 53% to the

    Telangana (10 dist) 23%

29) Nagarjuna sagar project – Andhra submerged land = 0, cultilavation land 20
      lakh acres. Telangana submerged land = 100%, cultivation land 4.5 lakh

30) Polavaram project is submerging 250 small villages in Telangana, displacing
      5 lakh tribal’s are going to provide lakhs of acres cultivation land to Andhra.

31) Grant-in-aid Private Degree colleges Andhra (9 dist) - 96,
      Rayalaseema (4 dist) - 32, Telangana (10 dist) - 30

       but 27% power of Ramagundam is being used for A.P.

43) 82% of farmers are depending on private loans in Telangana

44)  If development was the justification for keeping an alien ruler in place, India
       should have never been free from British rule !

45) There was no single drop of water in Palanadu 350yrs ago, it was like a
      desert. Now, entire Telangana canal irrigation land is less than Guntur dist
      alone.

46) Rs 60 crores of surplus budget was the pride of  Telangana in 1948.
      When Andhra state was formed – it had only 1 Crore in hand given by         
      Madras govt, and Shri Raj Gopalachari said ‘Get lost from here’.

47) Dr.B.R.Ambedkar suggested Hyderabad second capitol of India. He said
      Hyderabad is better than Delhi.

 48) Government buys sugar cane from farmers (per quintal) in
       Andhra – Rs 1200, Telangana –Rs 890
       Andhra lands are canal cultivated – Telangana depend on bore wells.

49) Andhrites converted Telangana -WAKF lands in to revenue lands in the era
      of real-estate boom, Lanco is main culprit in this, remember Muslim brothers
      shouted ‘go back’ at Lagadapati ?

50) 150 forts are about to ruin in the Telangana which were built by various   
      dynasties. They are symbols of great cultural heritage.

51) Hyd Central University is filled with Andhraits – every Central University in
      India has 60% reserved for local region. Except HCU.

52) Pranahita project, there is no staff, no sufficient funding, don’t even have
      proper office, but Andhra ruler says project will be completed 4yrs

53) There are never any difficulties in construction of irrigation projects in Andhra.
      But why irregularities, corruption, delays in Telangana projects?

54) Mahabubnagar 35lakhs population, migration 14 lakhs, 350km of Krishna 
      stretch, there is no drinking water or irrigation water.

55) How many JNTU colleges should be there in 10 dist of Telangana, if 2 are in
    4 districts of Rayalaseema ?

56) AP dairy buys milk from farmers from Andhra Rs 24.30, Telangana Rs 22.30

      Brahmananda Reddy, 1969 - 370 students shot dead.

61) WHO declared Nalgonda dist affected with fluorisis so much that it is moving
      towards No Man Zone.

62) While merging with Andhra leaders agreed to continue Mulki rules in
     Telangana. As per this 100% employees in Telangana should be from
     Telangana only.

63) Nizam formulated mulki rules in 1919, a person to get job in they must be
     Telangana from 15yrs,but now Andhra rulers reduced the period to 4yrs.

64) Seemandhrites got 28000 jobs in Telangana by getting bogus mulki
      certificates between 1956-1968. Between 1975 to 1985 again 58000 by
      violating presidential order.

65) In 1969 students/employees agitated  against 28000 jobs by Andhra. Andhra
      rulers killed 370 students.

66) In 1972, Andhra rulers managed to cancel supreme court judgment by
      parliament, then 6 point formula was introduced for jobs. As per this formula
      Telangana split into zone 5, zone 6.

67) As per presidential order Telangana people should get reservation 80% dist
      posts,70% zonal posts, 60% Gazetted posts. Remaining 20%,30%,40% shall
      be open to other regions – what’s happening now ?

68) In 1985, 610 GO for transfer of 58000 employs from Telangana, but this GO
      is never implemented. That too 610 GO is restricted to 102 departments only,
      out of 250 govt departments.

69) In 2001, Chandra Babu Naidu (CM)  appointed Girglani Commission which
     submitted report in 2004, that 2 lakh Seemandhra  employs are working in
     Telangana.

70) Only 23% Singareni coal is used in Telangana. Remaining 77% is being
      drained out to other places.

71) Per Capita Funds allocation to Student in universities.
       SV University - Rs. 37500, Andhra University - Rs  35500
       SK University - Rs  25000, Nagarjuna University - Rs 22700
       OU - Rs 17400, K.U -  Rs 14000

72) Cultivation land (Lakh Acres) Before 1956, Andhra 30.65, Telangana 18.20
       In 2004, Andhra  69.27, Telangana 18.00

73) Andhrites love for Hyd is like Pakistan’s love for Kashmir. They are ready to
      go to any extent to capture it.

74) Kothagudem thermal power station sabotaged on purpose to obtain repair
      contracts to Andhra contractors in 1978, this is confirmed in single man
      commission (Sundar Ramaiah commission – 1979)

75) All APSEB scams occurred so far at high level in board are targeted towards
      Telangana power supply and distribution, never to Andhra or Rayalaseema
      region. Higher officials found guilty by Vimal Lal commission, the
      recommendation were never implemented.

76) Technically it is possible to develop water grid to benefit Telangana,
      Rayalaseema and Andhra regions – it would match in comparison with
      Mississippi river water system (USA), Three Gorges river system (China),
      Nile river (Aswan dam) Africa and Rhine river system Europe. Similar models
      were conceived by intellectuals but are trashed by Andhra rulers and pseudo
      intellectuals because they will benefit Telangana.

77) 1969 - after Jai Telangana movement 'All Party Accord' was formulated,
      scrapped within 6 months. Than 8-point formula, 5-point formula were
      announced. then supreme court upheld Mulki rules. Andhra elites could not
      digest it, launched Jai Andhra movement. Central govt yielded as usual to
      elites tactics, then 6-point formula. Even this is being violated royally many
      times, robbing Telangana its rightfulness.

78) Nagarjuna Sagar initially meant to benefit Andhra and Telangana. Later on it
      is modified in such a way that 75% of the benefit is accruing to Andhra
      reducing the share of Telangana region to just 25%. Andhra settlers
      own 50% of these 25% utilization lands.

79) Singur project was originally designed to meet primarily the irrigation needs
      of Medak and Nizamabad districts. But it is now solely used for meeting the
      requirements of capital city.

80) Jurala Project which is the first project on river Krishna meant for Telangana,
      is the smallest of all the projects built on this river. The Bachawat Tribunal
      allocated just 17.5 TMC ft. water for this project, and the state government
      reduced its storage capacity to 60% ft. But the actual utilization so far has not
      been more than 10%

81) Rajolibanda Diversion Scheme, was to irrigate 87500 acres in
      Mahabubnagar. The Bachawat Tribunal also allocated 15.90 TMC ft. of water
      for this project. This water has to pass through a canal in Raichur district of
      Karnataka State. After the formation of Andhra Pradesh landlords of
      Rayalaseema blasted the gates with bombs and diverted water to their land.
      Since then Govt never even tried to reconstruct the gates.

82) Devadula Project, provides water for 5 lakh acres, was promised to be
      finished in 5 yrs in 2001, yet to begin work. The funniest fact is, Sriram sagar
      is yet to be completed for last 40 yrs which provides water for just 4 lakh
      acres. Telangana people are supposed to believe the promise.

83) Two major projects proposed on river Godavari are Ichampally and
      Polavaram. Ichampally is meant for Telangana and Polavaram for Andhra.
      The irrigation potential of Polavaram Project would be 6 to 7 times more than
      the irrigation potential of Ichampally. Ichampally is going to be primarily a
      power project not a irrigation project !

84) Andhra lands are irrigated by canal irrigation i.e. with tax payer’s money.  
      Andhra farmer pays Rs 200 - 300 per annum as water charges. Telangana
      lands are irrigated by bore wells, entire cost is on the farmer . Digging, power,
      bore well, motor, pipes. He struggles with fluctuations in power supplies with
      irregularities and pathetic power distribution pattern in Telangana.

85) Technological University was actually started in Warangal but was shifted to
      Hyderabad, Open University was originally Nalgonda district but was later
      shifted Hyd. The same state level universities University of Health Sciences,
      Mahila University and the University of Dravidian Languages were allowed to
      stay in Seemandhra - not moved to Capital city.

86) Twelve milk chilling plants established by the erstwhile Telangana Regional
      Committee in different parts of Telangana have been abruptly closed down
      showing lack of funds as a reason.

87) Ramagundam is in heart of coal belt … Fertilizer plant is closed showing a
      reason as poor quality of coal. NTPC is running with same coal, VTPS is
      running with same coal. Subsequently, Fertilizer plants are started in Nellore
      and Andhra.


88) Based on the proportionality at least 40% of jobs, i.e. 6 lakhs, should have
      gone to Telangana. But the total number of jobs now occupied by them is
      less than 3 lakhs.

89) 1972, PV Narasimha Rao made an attempt to implement the verdict of
      Supreme Court validating the Mulki Rules. The verdict was in favor of
      Telangana. Seemandhra gave outrageous reaction, he lost his
      Chief Ministership.

90) If it is assumed that the leaders of a region becoming chief ministers can
      contribute to the development of that region, then why do the people of
      Rayalaseema complain of backwardness ?

91) Daily wage workers working in industries – from Andhra (9 districts) 3.16
      lakhs, from Rayalaseema (4 districts)– 0.7 lakhs, Telangana (10 district)
      0.81 lakhs.

92) Andhra controlled media never highlighted migration of 15 lakh people out
      of 24lakh population from Mahabubnagar due to draught conditions.
      T. Anjaiah CM of AP from Telangana region was presented as a buffoon in
      dailies and cartoons.

93) At the time of merger Andhra leaders persuaded Telangana leaders by
     offering many safeguards against exploitation. They also passed a   
     Unanimous Resolution’ in November 1955 in Andhra Assembly in support of
     safeguards and subsequently they put these safeguards in an Agreement on
     20th February. 1956 which is known as “Gentlemen’s Agreement”. All are
     trashed soon after the agreement is signed.

94) Proportional representation says Telangana should get 42% jobs in the   
     Secretariat, but only 9% are working now. How can a people representative, 
     MLA, MLC can get a work done if  91% do not help ?

95) Metro Rail project is being designed dilapidating 5000 shops, 2500 houses,
      147 schools, 120 hospitals, 60 Temples/Masjid/Churches. Historical  
      monuments will disappear. All shops and complexes throughout Metro rail
      route are with Seemandhra thugs.

96) 1947 India got Independence. 1948 Indian Army did police action to
    dethrone Nizam. Hyd state existed from 1949 to 1956. Telangana merged with
    Andhra against its wishes in1956. Telangana has nothing to do with Potti
    Sriramulu.




97) Telangana Sayudha Poratam, (Telangana armed struggle) was against
    Nizam facist rule, 4000 people died - inspired all subsequent land movements
    in West Bengal, Kerala and Tripura and paved way for formation of
    Communist governments in those States. This is never acknowledged by
    Seemandhra rulers so far.

98) Despite 69% Krishna, 79% Godavari flows through Telangana, irrigation cost
     is Rs.1500/acre. 13% of Krishna, 21% Godavari flows through Andhra 
     irrigation cost is Rs.150/acre.

99) Per capita income of Madhya Pradesh: Rs 18,051. Chattisgarh formed in
    2000. Per capita income of Chhattisgarh in 2008-09 - Rs. 29,621. Recently
    formed smaller states are catching up with Haryana is 71%, Himachal is 81%
    and Uttarakhand is 75% - now Jharkhand 58%, Chhattisgarh 63%. Also, Infant
    mortality UP 67%, Uttarakhand 44%.

100) Yr 2008 Targeted growth rate  & achieved: bigger states: MP 7% - 4.3%;
         UP 7.6% - 4.6%; Bihar 6.2% 4.7%
         smaller states: Chhattisgarh 6.1% - 9.2%; Jharkhand 6.9% - 11.1%
         Uttaranchal 6.8% - 8.8%

101) Since 1956 to date, the additional irrigation potential created in Telangana is
        only 5%

102) There are 10,000+ Industrial units in Telangana, 1200 are owned by
        Telanganites, 6500 are owned by Seemandhra, rest are by outsiders.

103)  Proportionally Telangana should be given about 43% in budget allocation,
         Since 1953, it never exceeded 30%. Yet Telangana contributes 42% of
         revenue to the state exchequer.

104) Nizamsagar was built in 1931 to serve Nizamabad and Medak about 2.7
        lakh acres of land. It was neglected for maintenance and improvements,
        now satellite images prove that all its 83 tributaries, 243 distributaries have
        been silted up and eroded. World bank sanctioned 30 crores for the project,
        which was never spent. The project now going to be almost useless.

105) In Andhra region every year two crops are cultivated because of water
         availability,  in Telangana a single crop will be cultivated with great
         difficulty.
106) Technical institutions wise, 26 are in Telangana, 54 are in Andhra. 20
         polytechnics in Telangana, 70 in Andhra. 2 Medical colleges in
         Telangana, 6 in Andhra.



107) British build Railways, Administrative Services, Post and Telegraph,
         installed democratic institutions, judiciary, rule of law, and built the cities of
         Kolkata, Mumbai and Chennai, and New Delhi. British did not claim any of
         these when they had to leave India. Seemandhra are making big hue and
         cry clamoring for Hyderabad claiming they have built the city. In 400 yrs of
         Hyderabad history, how many years did they contribute the 'development' ? 
        
108) Hyderabad - demographic expansion can never be considered as a
         development. It’s natural growth. It is like a girl who is 10 yrs now will
         attain 15yrs of age after 5 yrs – can we call it development ? Also, its
         not just Hyd which is developed … all big/medium cities in India are in
         development path.

  1. Not even a single project was completed in Telangana in the last 5 years while several projects were completed in Andhra and Rayalaseema.

    Ans:
    Another baseless statement. The following projects in Telangana regions have become operational in the last 5 years -
    1. Devadula Lift Irrigation Project (Phase I) (benefits 60,000 acres) became operational in March, 2008.
    2. Alisagar Lift Irrigation Project (benefits 54,000 acres) became operational in November, 2007.
    3. A. Madhava Reddy Project(Phase I) (benefits 50,000 acres) became operational in September, 2006.
    Compared to this, the following projects became operational in Andhra/Rayalaseema region -
    1. Pushkara Lift Irrigation in East Godavari district (mostly to the non-irrigated North and Westerm parts of the district). This project benefits 80,000 acres.
    2. Tadipudi Lift Irrigation scheme, mostly for providing drinking water to the water-starved upland mandals of West Godavari district, is partially Operational.
    3. Brahmamsagar Project (benefits 50,000 acres) in Cuddapah district
    4. Pedderu Reservoir (benefits 13,000 acres) in Visakhapatnam district
    5. Jhanjhavati Project (benefits 9000 acres) in Vizianagaram district

  2. Two major rivers Krishna and Tungabhadra enter the state of AP in the district of Mahaboobnagar (the biggest district in Telangana) but the district always remains the worst draught hit areas along with Anantapur because there is no project and process with which the water can be utilized. The plans for utilization has been pending for decades.
    Ans:
    To put things in perspective, we need to look at the background of the drought conditions. Agriculture in this district has been primarily done by borewells since long back and indiscriminate increase of this usage, over decades, led to depletion of ground water levels. The contours and the percentage of arable land in this district doesn’t help either (Anantapur fares much worse in that the forest cover is only 5%, whereas Mahabubnagar has a forest cover of 16%). The eastern part is upland/hilly and the majority of the soil is Red Chalka type. This district is mostly a catchment area for the rivers, which means this is not really plain land. Govts over the years have tried to implement various measures such as watershed projects (through Desert Development Programmes, Drought Prone Region Development Programmes etc), Small check dams and drip irrigation schemes. The efforts of the Govts led to an increase in ground water level and rejuvenation of around 31000 borewells.
    This is not to say that the Govts have done enough. Much more needs to be done here, which has not been done so far.
    Currently, Nettempadu Lift Irrigation Project, Kalwakurthy Lift Irrigation Project and Rajiv Lift Irrigation Projects are being implemented and upon their completion, this district will hopefully be no more categorized as drought-prone.

    Normally canals are dug to supply water to the crops from rivers for cultivation. The amount of land cultivated through canals in just Guntur district is more than the land cultivated with canals in entire Telangana region.
    Ans:
    Not true. Guntur district irrigated area is 6,78,197 acres (http://irrigation.cgg.gov.in/dp/GunturDistrictProfile.jsp). Karimnagar district irrigated area is 6,47,402 acres (http://irrigation.cgg.gov.in/dp/KarimnagarDistrictProfile.jsp. Note that 1 Hectare = 2.471 acres).

    Nagarjuna sagar dam is built in Nalgonda district which is in Telangana but majority of the water from the dam is used for Krishna and Guntur district. The original dam was supposed to be build much ahead of its present location but the location was changed so that it falls in the
    Telangana region. Due to the construction of the dam several hectares of Lime stone mines vanished as part of the dam back waters. Everyone know that lime stone is used for producing cement. Even the natural resources were not allowed to remain.
    Ans:
    A bit of a history here – Nagarjuna Sagarproject was originally conceived by the British, around 1903, with Siddeswaram and Pulichintala as possible balancing reservoir sites. Unfortunately, these proposals did not materialize. Floods in Krishna river used to devastate Krishna district, while Guntur and Nalgonda were drought prone. As part of the first five-year plan, Nehru Govt. appointed Khosla committee to examine and report on the optimum and most beneficial utilization of Krishna River waters. The recommendations of the Committee, which were later endorsed by the Planning Commission in December, 1952, are to construct Nandikonda Dam across Krishna River with full reservoir level at +590.00 feet with canals taking off on either side. Water allocated to the Project is 281 TMC. The foundation stone of the Dam was laid by the late Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, the first Prime Minister of India on 10.12.1955. (It is worth noting here that Andhra Pradesh state was formed in 1956, after the dam foundation was laid. It is outrageous to spread the idea that there’s a conspiracy by the Andhrites in shifting the location of the site, when the state itself was not in existence.)
    Another piece of interesting information on the background of Nagarjuna Sagar –http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raja_of_Muktyala#Achievements.
    "Raja spent fifty two lakhs of rupees (in 1950s) as a matching grant for the project construction". What is the investment of Telangana in this project, while reaping the benefits of the project and yet promoting the idea that injustice was done ?
    Regarding Limestone quarries, there are enough limestone reserves to support a host of cement industries.For more info – http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jaggaiahpet#Economy.
    Statements that non-telangana regions conspired against Telangana people are false theories spread by people with vested interests.

  4. 45% of the state income comes from Telangana region. When it comes to utilization of funds, the share of Telangana is only 28%.
    Ans:
    As was pointed out by some members here, the income from hyderabad and rangareddy districts forms a major share of this income. This income
    mostly comes from the sectors of Real Estate, Manufacturing, Infrastructure and IT industries. Not to instigate any regional feelings here, but it is worth noting that many of these companies (excluding IT sector to some extent) are owned by non-Telanganites.

  5. My dear friend..
    i have great respect for our nation.After lot of struggle we got independence and with it we got some democratic rights.. One among them is freedom of expression and we both are using this now...

    As per my observation the "Current" demand for separate telangana is purely created by jobless politicians.

    Except for the cultural identity Slogan every thing they say is crap.
    All the problems-- Allocating water to districts , Construction of irrigation projects, Government Jobs , fluorinated water in nalgonda every this is a failure from the very same local politicians and bureaucrats who are making allegations.

    Did Any one did an agitation for a New project, get good drinking water to Nalgonda, Implementing 610 GO.. all these congress MP's who are trying to take the credit today.... Who are they and what are they doing till sep 2nd 2009????

    Any what They talk??? its a demand there for 50 yrs?? whom they are fooling?? when was the last time we hear the agitation and Why we need to dig to the past when we have a option for a better future????

    We Say indiain culture as Unity in Diversity... the culture thing.. the slang thing.. even in Telangana districts the slangs are different(Adilabad to Khammam...).. every 50 kms we have new traditions and new slangs...

    Lets not get carried away by the provocation speeches of these looser Politicians...
    we are educated and lets think sensibly.. whom we are fighting for and who is going to make merry when we have two different maps for telugu people????
    If you want to scold me or correct me i am open for it.. mail me at saikrishnailuri@gamil.com

  6. thank you for your feed-back mr.krishna.i do agree with ur info.but when you go through the benifits andhra people got from their native people being the rulers of the state is sizeably more than what we telangana people has got.

    it is a natural instinct that people show partiality to their own regions than any other places.so is the case of our state now.our state was being ruled by seemandhra people except for a few times and resulting in situation where only andhra got benifited and telangana regions being exploited n incurred with huge losses.

    there were many solutions stated in the past for the problems faced by telangana people.but the fact is no one implemented those solutions juz because it was & is ruled by seemandhra rulers.

    we feel that the best way to get rid-off these nepotistic rulers is a seperate state ruled by our own people.Atleast then we hope those solutions will be implemented.

    we lost hopes on these seemandhra rulers.
    and im not supporting these trs party politicians either..i want a state ruled by native people striving hard for providing productive solutions to problems and implementing them as well.

Why This Blog??

As I always feel, These Modern day Wonders Never cease to amaze me. Here & then, I find many things that Amaze me and on seeing such things, I always end up-"Dumbstruck".

I thought of making an Agglomeration of all that amused me.When I write/develop/create something that impresses my senses, I want them to be published, just to show world what I am impressed off & & ultimately, I await the same impressive response to reverberate.

So, Here it is.:-)

Needless to say, this Blog has been Momentous to me from the day one.On the contrary, I hope,it doesn`t appear Obnoxious to you all.
