Ah, the great Indian tradition of selective outrage! The latest tempest in a teacup? Governments in Telangana and Andhra Pradesh allowing Muslim employees to leave an hour early during Ramzan to break their fast. Predictably, the self-appointed protectors of fairness are up in arms, crying “appeasement!” But let’s cut the drama—why whine about it when…
The ongoing Srivari Laddu scam at the Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams (TTD) has added to the troubles of former Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister and YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) leader Y. S.

The Telangana Congress government, led by Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy has decided to table a caste census, a move that raises questions about its sincerity given the party’s historical stance on the issue.

Amidst these claims, the government, under Prime Minister Narendra Modi, has presented contrasting evidence showcasing…
Once upon a time, TV debates were intellectual arenas where ideas clashed, not fists or egos. Fast forward to today, and these “debates” resemble verbal demolition derbies—complete with mudslinging, screaming matches, and the occasional lunge across the table. Regional and national channels alike now compete not for journalistic integrity but for who can deliver the…
The political tussle in Telangana has reached fever pitch, with Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy signalling that K.T. Rama Rao (KTR), the working president of the Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS), could face prison. This assertion, echoed by Congress leaders like Ponguleti Srinivas Reddy, highlights the charged atmosphere as both parties engage in a battle for…
Barely a year into his term as Chief Minister of Telangana, Revanth Reddy finds himself grappling with serious corruption allegations under the AMRUT 2.0 (Atal Mission for Rejuvenation and Urban Transformation) scheme.
