T'gana in 2024: Caste survey begins, Allu Arjun in soup over fatal stampede

The first Congress government in Telangana kicked off implementation of its poll promises, including the path-breaking caste census, during 2024, but its ambitious projects of Musi river redevelopment and development of a 'future-ready city' on Hyderabad outskirts would not be easy as they require massive funds, besides posing other challenges in execution. The Telugu film industry whose fame soared following the success of mega films like 'RRR' came under pressure at home during the year in the aftermath of the 'Pushpa-2' stampede on December 4, where a woman was killed and her son seriously injured. At a meeting with Telugu cinema industry representatives post the Allu Arjun episode, Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy made it clear law and order was supreme and that the movie world was no exception to it. The Congress government which assumed power last year, began implementation of the party's poll promises and 'guarantees', including Rs 21,000 crore crop loan waiver, besides the cas

Express responsibly, avoid abusive language, behaviour: Allu Arjun to fans

Telugu cinema star Allu Arjun on Sunday appealed to his fans to not resort to any kind of abusive language or behaviour, both online and offline, amid fresh allegations against him in the Sandhya Theatre stampede case. A 35-year-old woman died and her eight-year-old son was injured on December 4 during a stampede-like situation at the cinema hall in Hyderabad when thousands of fans jostled to have a glimpse of the actor at the premiere of his recent release "Pushpa 2: The Rule". Telangana Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy on Saturday alleged that Arjun visited the theatre during the film's screening despite police permission being denied, a charge that the actor denied. On Sunday, Arjun shared a word of caution for his fans on social media. "I appeal to all my fans to express their feelings responsibly, as always and not resort to any kind of abusive language or behavior both online and offline," he said in a statement posted on X.

BRS creating issues in Cong govt's development projects: CM Revanth Reddy

Telangana Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy on Wednesday accused the BRS of creating obstacles in the Congress government's development projects, and said BRS leader K T Rama Rao will have to go to jail for his alleged conspiracy in a recent attack on government officials. Referring to the November 11 attack on officials during a public hearing for land acquisition in his assembly constituency of Kodangal in Vikarabad district, he charged that rowdy elements were made to assault the officials.

T'gana's decision of Rs 500 bonus on fine paddy pushes cultivation by 61%

In a remarkable achievement, fine variety paddy (sanna vadlu) cultivation in Telangana has gone up by 61 per cent to four million acres this kharif season compared to 2.5 million acres during the same period last year, government sources said on Sunday. In a social media post, Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy complimented farmers and said for the first time after the formation of Telangana, despite the Kaleshwaram Project not being in a position to store water, paddy was harvested at a record level. The reason for increase in the acreage (fine paddy) is attributed to the Rs 500 bonus per quintal for the fine variety paddy announced by the Congress government in the state as part of its poll promise, sources said. The state government has announced the Rs 500 bonus on the minimum support price (MSP) on the fine variety paddy from this season. As a result, the cultivation area of sanna vadlu has increased by 61 per cent compared to last time, they said. On the other hand, the ...
