Social Welfare Residential Educational Institutions Society (APSWEIS), who set out on the Everest Expedition on April 4 from Hyderabad are preparing to go for the final push to scale Mt. Everest today. Poorna and Anand have successfully entered the Death Zone of Mount Everest by scaling up to 8300 Meters and both are said to be fit and fine with sufficient oxygen and essential equipment in good working condition. For the summit of 8848 Meters, the final push has began last night to unfurl our National Flag on the peak of Mount Everest Sunday Morning before 11 AM.

The Secretariat Telangana Employees Association (STEA) has raised serious objections over categorization of 207 officials as having origin in Telangana and demanded review of the entire process of division of employees. The objections came within a day of AP Govt. releasing a list of 1,865 Secretariat employees which categorized 1050 employees as that of Andhra and 805 that of Telangana. After giving a representation to general administration department (GAD) secretary SK Sinha, who promised review of the violations, the Association threatened any attempt to bulldoze their concerns would be met with complete boycott of the employees who faked their nativity. The employees took their concern to CM designate KCR. With this the TRS president has constituted a committee with four ...

In 1971 Telangana Praja Samithi won 11 out of 14 Lok Sabha seats. It stalled the tsunami of Indira Gandhi after Bangladesh was created winning war with Pakistan. None could imagine the strength of Telangana voter deciding so differently. Nation was surprised at that stunning defeat of Congress here, while it won all over India. History repeated in 2014 as Telangana voters elected 11 MPs out of 17. If TPS stalled Indira storm in 1971, TRS stopped Modi wave now. The just born State is now in the company of Kerala, Tamilnadu, Odisha and West Bengal in doing so. The division of Andhra Pradesh has changed the democratic premise of Telugu battle for ballot. It has ‘empowered the people’ of ...

What seemed impossible a few years ago is now a reality. Telangana will have its own first assembly and a Chief Minister in a few days from now. While most seem to believe that the Telangana results are on expected lines, the spectacular performance of the Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) deserves greater analysis. A party with virtually no cadre in many districts, virtually nonexistent in the twin cities of Hyderabad was able to mobilize a large number of voters in the Telangana plank. It made inroads in areas which were hitherto completely out of reach. Vote Share: In a multi cornered contest that was on witness in Telangana, even a few percentage points difference in vote share would mean a ...

In a coup of sorts, KCR convinced the chief of Coal India Limited S Narsing Rao to give up his high-profile post to serve in Telangana Chief Minister’s Office (CMO). While media reports say Mr Rao would be serving as Principal Secretary, it is possible he could serve as an OSD. CIL top position is highly contested for and Mr Rao himself was picked out of dozen top IAS officers 2 years ago. It must have required quite some convincing on KCR’s part for Rao to consider this option. Hardly a day after he broached the subject of power deficit in Telangana, KCR was knocking the doors of the Governor again with CIL Chief S Narsing Rao in toe, showing ...
