1022: 50 BJP/NDA MPs may not rebel against BJP/NDA Top Leadership- Discussion

Triggers to me, for my this blog post, are: 1) Discussion in Telugu News Channel TV9, on 3rd Oct. 2017, 8.30 p.m., about the developments in BJP, and the Economic Development Arena of this country. Link to see this TV9 discussion: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oCH_zZN205Y. 2) Full page advertisement released by Govt. of India, and the Govt. of Andhra Pradesh, in the DeccanChronicle.Com, print Edition dated 3rd Oct. 2017, Page7, on the occasion of laying of Foundation Stone for 13 NH Projects costing Rs.4153 crore (Rs. 42 billion), at IGM Stadium, Vijayawada, Andhra Pradesh. Photo courtesy DeccanChronicle.Com. My sincere thanks to them. Interested Readers can visit the Epaper of the DeccanChronicle.Com. The aforesaid TV9 discussion has also a marquee line saying 'laka laka laka' (Telugu language). One of the participants expressed a view that if the top BJP Leadership does not initiate corrective measures, there is a possibility of about 50 Ruling Party Members moving away from BJP, in case BJP fails to win Gujarat Elections, and that 50 Senior Members are waiting for a Right timing. The Participant praised the performance of the Govt. of Shri Modi, upto the point of Demonetization.

Personal views of ybrao-a-donkey which are not intended to be imposed on others.

I am not a supporter or hater of Shri Narendra Modi, our Hon. Prime Minister. I am too small a fry to do that. But the TV9 Discussion linked above was very lively, and they have expressed some very valid points. The Representative of the BJP Party, who participated in the discussion, faced a tough situation amidst the criticism by the other two participants, and the penetrating questions by the anchor, who has made tremendous fair and frank effort to elicit replies from the BJP Representative.

Is it really likely that 50 Members will raise against BJP Top Leadership?

Ans: This may not happen for the following reasons:--
1) MPs of all Parties have spent millions of Rupees, to get elected to the Parliament. Revolts by Lok Sabha Members can lead to Mid Term Elections. Fresh Elections means, fresh burden of expenditure. They have to recover their 2014 Election Expenses, and add more bucks for the 2019 Normal Elections. The Prime Minister himself has pledged a slogan, 'na khAtE' or 'na khAnE dEtE'.(English: Shall not EAT, nor will allow others to EAT). Then, how the 2014 MPs are going to recover their expenses? By toppling the existing Leadership, and going for a New Prime Minister who will 'khAtE' and 'khAnE dEtE' (Will Eat, and allow others to Eat), --some MPs may wish for. But, they cannot speak about or canvass for that openly, because that may lead them to face fresh troubles.

2) Like many Indian Voters, Indian MPs also may not shift their loyalties, unless there are some financial motivators. Such financial motivators may run into Crores of Rupees. If at least 100 MPs are to be purchased to change their loyalties, Rs. 1,000 crore (Rs. 10 billion) may be needed. Such billions, only Industrialists and Business Tycoons can pay. As on date, Industrialists and Business Tycoons seem to be fully happy with the present BJP Leadership Dispensations. Even if some dissatisfaction exists among some Industrialists and Business Tycoons, still they have not lost hope that the unhappy features in Govt. Policies can be corrected and retuned to meet their needs.

3) If sufficient number of MPs do not jump over the fence, there is a danger of Defecting/ Rebel MPs facing Disqualification.

Today's politicians are very much practical politicians. They know very clearly on which side, their bread is buttered.

Advertisement released by GOI and GOAP (see the above picture)

It is strange that the above Advertisement contains the photographs of Shri Venkaiah Naidu, Vice President of India, Shri Nithin Gadkari, Union Minister of our Road and Water Ways, and Shri Nara Chandra Babu Naidu, the Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh. Conspicuously absent is the photo of the Hon. Prime Minister Narendra Modi, whose photo we see ubiquitously (omnipresent) everywhere, nowadays.

Is this omission to add PM's photo, deliberate or accidental (inadvertant)? Has Mr. Nara Chandra Babu Naidu, lost his patience with our Hon. PM? Mr. Naidu is eager for funds from Center. He has Great Plans for Construction of New Capital for Andhra Pradesh, at New Amaravati. Besides, he has revised the Estimates for the Polavaram Project to Rs. 50,000 crore (Rs. 500 billion or about $9 billion). He does not leave any occasion, in Meetings to ask the Central Ministers for funds. These repeated entreaties by Mr. Naidu for Central Funds, might have irked the Central Leaders, because their antennae are focused towards Gujarat and Karnataka, in particular, and the BJP Ruled States in General.

There is also the debt burden which the Residual Andhra Pradesh inherited, after forced bifurcation of the United Andhra Pradesh in 2014, both by Congress and BJP at Centre, against the wishes of the People of the Residual Andhra Pradesh, while outstanding debts have been divided in the Ratio of Populations of the Two New States, income-yielding assets, Income Sources, Central Institutions have gone to the Telangana State, along with the Hyderabad City which was developed with combined funds of both the States. Though both the BJP and Congress promised to compensate Residual Andhra Pradesh for their deprivation and destitution, nothing solid was done by the Centre.

Why Mr. Chandra Babu Naidu is not getting appointment for Interview with the PM?

Of course, to reply to this question, Hon. Prime Minister may not have time or energies. Mr. Naidu can answer. Let us hope that he will answer.

There are News Reports which indicate that Mr. Chandra Babu Naidu is not able to get an appointment with the PM for the last one year. In the above TV9 discussion, there is also a mention that Central Govt. Officials are asking from the CM of AP, for 'Agenda' for the Meeting, to examine the scope for fixing an appointment with PM!

Residual Andhra Pradesh, after its bifurcation from Telangana, has lost its strength of MPs. The number of AP MPs has got nearly halved. Now, Residual A.P. is only a small State, among 28 other such Entities. Central Leaders are too busy elsewhere.

983 Some Musings on ways of Police in India, and possibly th world

Like many other countries in the world, India is also a country of miserable and pitiable deaths. LIke most other States of India, Residual Andhra Pradesh is also a State of miserable and pitiable deaths. Of course like the global practices and behaviors, National practices and behaviors, in Andhra Pradesh also, Media in general just reports them and forgets about it, unless in the Media's view the news has sufficient meat, to engage its attention for weeks together. Rulers will not bother, unless some court admonishes them. Besides, politicians of Ruling parties may be hand in glove with the misery-makers. Trigger for this blog: A news item in local English newspapers, about the death of a 13 year old girl, under circumstances where her mother could not spend Rs. 3.5 million for cancer treatment of the girl. The girl's saga: Her mother and her biological father were separated. Her biological father purchased a house in the name of the girl, with a provision that she would get entitled to it only after attaining her majority (18 years). When the girl is 13, the girl was affected by bone cancer. Her mother, to the best of her ability, bore the medical expenses of the girl.

When the expenses became unaffordable, the girl's mother approached her ex-hubby for financial help, who had initially paid some expenses. When the need to spend Rs. 3.5 million to spend arose, the biological father of the girl refused to oblige. Besides, the house is in his occupation, and he had rented the house. With no help forthcoming from the biological father, with the mother helplessly wailing for her predicament, the girl passed away, with the bone cancer.

It is worthwhile to read what the girl's mother sobbing inconsolably spoke to news-persons who met her:-(I am unable to provide a weblink for the TimesofINdia.com news, as I am unable to trace it through googling. I am typing from what is available in the Print Version of Times of India News Paper, Vijayavada Edition, dated 15th May 2017, page 3 TIMES CITY.

"...He (Kumar- ex husband) claimed to care for my child. Where is he? Today, Sivashree is dead, because of his aparthy. ..."

According to her, Kumar who is a rowdy sheeter, tried to grab Sivashree's property, using MLA Bonda Umamaheswara Rao's 'goons'.

"...The property is under Sivashree's name. She would have been eligible to sell the property, only after turning 18 years old. My daughter needed money for her treatment. The hospital gave an estimate of Rs. 35 lakhs. The treatment included bone marrow transplant. Selling the house was vital for us, but we could not do so because, of Kumar. ..."

"...Kumar is inhuman. Till today, the police have not accepted our complaint the way we wanted it. They file it according to their wishes. ..."

She also released a video of her daughter saying "Madham Shetty Shiva Kumar and his two sons are responsible for my death".

Sivashree had earlier sent videos to her father pleading him to give money for her treatment. She allegedly recorded videos of the symptoms and sent it to Kumar. In those videos Sivashree is seen crying in pain, asking Kumar to sell the house for her life. TOI.

yb-donkey's personal views, not intended to be imposed on others

Unwillingness of an estranged biological father to sell a piece of property kept aside for his daughter's future life, to meet medical treatment of the daughter suffering from a fatal disease, prima facie looks like cruelty, attracting provisions of appropriate Sections of Indian Penal Code. Conviction or acquittal will of course depend on the circumstances of the case, and the tenability-veracity of the evidence which may be submitted by the Prosecution, and the sincerity-seriousness of the Investigating Officers.

The words of the girl's mother saying "The Police have not accepted our complaint the way we wanted it. They file it according to their wishes" is worth noting. Preliminary complaints given by people to the Police Stations in INdia, are technical known as FIRST INFORMATION REPORTS. Asa person engaged in English, Hindi, Telugu language translations, I have come across experiences of translating hundreds of FIRs which contain the first statement given by the Complainants. This first statement of report by the Complainant is enclosed to printed FIR forms.

There seems to be a historical ubiquitous custom at Police Stations all over India, whereby the Police Station In-charges do not accept a written complaint, as tendered by the Complainants. When a complainant approaches them with a written complaint, detailing everything, the Police Officials tend to write their own version of the Complaint and ask the Complainants to sign on it, as correct.

This method of Police Station-House Officers / Writers / Head Constables abridging / censoring the written complaint brought by the the Complainants, distorts the original complaint, and deprives the Investigating Officer, some of the essential inputs required for inquiry. Instead, a better method will be to accept the complaint report given by the Complainant in a 'as is where is condition', and after scrutiny further written information can be called for from the complainant, either by the S.H.O., or the Investigating Officer. The present method of re-writing the complaints brought by the Complainants at the Receiption Desk, is leading to wastage of manpower in the Police Station, which would have otherwise been employed more productively.

Even in case of 'illiterate' or 'semi-literate' complainants, wherever they voluntarily come forward to submit their own written / typed complaints, they should not be discouraged. It is possible, that written complaints submitted by Complainants which were prepared by themselves or got prepared by them with the help of others, may contain some flaws. Ordinarily, there should be no compulsion for the Investigating Officer, to take into consideration, every line of the complaint submitted by the applicant. Wherever, there are valid reasons, Investigating Officers can ignore such superfluous contents.

Experience in some Police Stations of Andhra Pradesh may show that the Police Station Staff re-writing the complaints, try to recover some service charge (charges for entering FIR data into Computers, with the help of data entry operators privately employed at Stations) from the Applicants. This practice not only tarnishes the image of police stations, but also places burden on poor Complainants. Instead of reproducing the contents of the complainant's statement in appropriate para of FIRs, a scanned copy of the statement can be uploaded into the Computer System, and can be treated as an attachment to the FIR.

956 Part 5 of Closure of Private Travels, and the hardships of unpaid Laborers. SOME SOLUTIONS.

Question: You seem to be a fool. Why are you trying to link the Great sculpture of Late Devi Prasad Roy Chowdhury, with the Bus of the now-closed Kesineni Travels, Vijayawada? Ans: Late Devi Prasad Roy Chowdhury, very effectively depicted the Triumph of Labor. Labor does not mean only breaking of stones. It can include thousands of activities undertaken by humans, in their ceaseless attempts to fill their bellies. Nobody can measure the value of the sweat of the Laborers, though monetary wages may be paid to them for their toil, influenced by some vague Economic Theories like Demand and Supply theory of Wages, Opportunity Cost theory of Wages, Marginal Productivity Theory of Wages, etc. While this is so when wages are paid, what will be the position if wages are NOT paid for eight months? According to the news reports the drivers, cleaners, mechanics etc. working in the Kesineni Travels have not been paid their wages for the last eight months. They say that they were surviving with the daily allowance being paid when they were going on outdoor duty. Now, that the Travels is closed, that source of subsistence is not available.

First, you justify your analogy of the DPR Chowdhury's sculpture 'Triumph of Labor' and the 'Travels Laborers'.

Ans: The toil of vehicle drivers not only has a historical heritage, but also a mythological heritage.
The adjacent picture shows the plight of Mahabharata Warrior Karna, trying to lift his wheel struck in mud, while facing the arrows of Arjuna. Drivers and cleaner of vehicles, the tires of which are struck in mud, or which are punctured, or there is some sudden failure of engine or there is some broken axle / rear springs (in Telugu language, these are called kamAnu kaTTAs), when they were cruising through in drenching rains or in blistering Sun @48 degrees C., face innumerable hardships. We have to do some sort of 'para kAya pravEsam' [A Telugu / Sanskrit / Hindi phrase for a sort of empathy. para=others. kAya=body. pravESam=enter, entry. Gist: We have to enter into the body(ies) of other persons to know their feelings and experience their hardships (sometimes joys also)]. Till the wheels are pulled out of the mud, or the punctured tyre is replaced, or the broken axle / kamAn kaTTa is replaced, their slogging will be LIMITLESS. Though not identical to, the exertions of the drivers, cleaners and mechanics, can be compared to the sweat of the Laborers in the DP Roy Chowdhury's sculpture 'Triumph of Labor'. When the vehicle starts cruising again, their pains will get gradually reduced, and at the end of the day, they return home with their 'triumphs' in memories.

But the above is the story of PAID WORKERS. What will be the misery of the workers who are denied their wages for their slogging of eight months?

SOME IMMEDIATE SOLUTION

It appears that in Andhra Pradesh, or in India, the Labor Dept. Govt. Officials, or Govt. Officials of any other Departments do not seem to have powers to conduct an immediate search of the Business Premises of the Employers who default on wages / who close their businesses. (There may be some forgotten Sections of Law, never implemented by the Government Officials).
If required, the Government of Andhra Pradesh immediately issue an Ordinance signed by the Governor, empowering Govt. Officials to search and seize cash / movables / vehicles in the closed business premises of the Employer. The Ordinance should also have provision for confiscating the Employer's Personal Properties. Workers' Wages cannot wait for the Liquidation of Companies under Indian Companies Act by High Courts, and for appointment of Official Receivers / Assignees / Liquidators. Pledgees / Hyphothecatees / mortgagees should be forced to sell the assets in their charge / under their possession, and pay the Workers Wages immediately.

All the things seized should be immediately sold in Open Public Auction by giving just three days notice to the Employer. Proceeds of the Auction should be paid to the Workers immediately.

Under no circumstances, laborers should be made to wait for the outcome of Court suits and judgements.

LONG TERM, PREVENTIVE SOLUTION

For this also, we have to amend labor laws. At the beginning of the month, an Employer should calculate the wages he will be liable to pay the Workers for the ensuing month, and should deposit the money so calculated in an Escrow Account with a Bank opened for the purpose. The Bank should not allow the amounts in that account to be withdrawn for any other purpose. At the end of the month, the Employer can issue cheques / issue Account Transfer instructions for payment of wages, by credit to the personal accounts of the employees. If this procedure is followed, why will wages accumulate for eight months?

For knowing this, why does Mr. Chandra Babu Naidu, Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh require a KAIZEN APP? HOW IS IT THAT: A Great self-declared EXPERIENCED GREAT-Administrator like Mr. Nara Chandra Babu Naidu, did not know about the default committed in payment of wages by his own Member of Parliament. Mr. Naidu is not legendary Dhritarashtra, nor Mr. Nani is Dhritarashtra's son Duryodhana. What were the Transport Minister, Transport Secretaries, Labor Secretaries, CMO, IAS/IPS Officers doing? At least they ought to have gathered information about defaults in payment of wages, and reported to their boss!!!

770 EXPERIENCES AT PANDIT NEHRU BUS STATION, APSRTC, VIJAYAWADA. Why APSRTC is so cruel to the poor passengers? Why Mr. Naidu is insensitive to inconveniences to passengers?

A few days back, I had the privilege of visiting the Public Sector Andhra Pradesh Road Transport Corporation Bus Station in Vijayawada City, the Capital of Residual Andhra Pradesh. Purpose: A friend of mine was carrying some luggage pertaining to his Government of Andhra Pradesh Office work. I was helping him in sharing the weighty luggage, which he intended to book as an ANL Parcel in Vijayawada Bus Station, to a Godavari Town. After some search we traced the ANL Parcel Service Office. The concerned counter in-charge went to tea. We waited till his arrival. After his return, we showed him the luggage and requested him to book the parcel. The manner in which he spoke, we got an impression that he is reluctant to book the luggage. Probably, to discourage us, he said that the parcels will be placed on the top of the bus. This is rainy season. He suggested that we can send the luggage through ANL Courier and showed his hand backwards, asking us to go to ANL Couriers. From that point, our hardships started.

Reason: At that particular point of time ANL Courier counter which was behind him diagonally a few feet away was closed, and its door was locked from the rear of the hall. This, the Counter-in-charge could have straight-away told us, so that we could have made some other alternative arrangement. That would have saved at least 1 hour time and prevented running from pillar to post.

We were not aware of the closure of the rear of the Hall of the ANL Office. The surroundings of the place were full of nearly 150 Security personnel. They were making security rehearsals for the NEXT DAY visit of Mr. Nara ChandraBabu Naidu for inaugurating APSRTC Office in Vijayawada. While carrying the luggage, we were making inquiries from many persons including RTC Hamalis, RTC Staff, Security Personnel where this ANL Courier Office is situated on the rear side of the Hall. They were just showing hands this side or that side, with no other verbal guidelines. There were no "Way to ANL Couriers" Boards. Whenever we went as per their guidelines, we were landing at the lifts which are getting ready for Mr. Naidu's visit, and the Security Personnel were restricting movement of people.

Security Personnel were also not allowing passengers to go to the Renovated Reception Counters etc. I do not blame them because it is their duty to take all safeguards, and view every passenger with suspicion.

At last, at the extreme western rear of the building we found one ANL Courier Board, which might have hosted its old Office. It was found closed.

After 60 to 90 mts. search one Armed Guard was kind enough to show the corridor which leads to the backside of the ANL Parcel Office. It was blocked by a wooden separator to prevent persons from passing through the corridor. There were also some closed toilets. Finally we found one locked door, with no board whatsoever. From the window, it can be seen that it is the same hall which was hosting the ANL Parcel Office. Then, why the ANL Courier did not even have a sign board? Why it was locked? Presumably it was forced to be locked by the Security Cordon, as a part of Rehearsal for Mr. Naidu, ONE DAY IN ADVANCE.

Whatever be the reason for closing the ANL Courier Office on that day, they should have pasted two or three A4 papers saying that it was closed for "Security Rehearsal of Mr. Naidu" or "for any other reason." By just locking it and going, what message is being given? The ANL Parcel Counter-In-charge could have told that their Courier Wing is non-functional, just looking behind a few feet diagonally.

FINALLY WHAT WAS DONE WITH THE LUGGAGE

As the two bags were small, my friend kept them at his feet in the RTC Bus, and left towards Godavari, with his wife and children, in the RTC Bus.

WHY FREE VANILLA URINALS WERE CLOSED?

After bidding farewell to my friend and his family, I just wanted to ease myself by going to a urinal. Now, I have to go back to Guntur, to reach my ultimate desination. Before that it was necessary for me to visit urinal, as we have already spent several hours in the bus station searching for this or that.

URINATING AT VIJAYAWADA BUS STATION UNAVOIDABLE FOR MOST PASSENGERS

Earlier, RTC used to maintain vanilla type toilets, for use of the passengers. For solid excretion, the Contractor used to charge. For just urination, there was no charge. When passengers perform long journies, say from Visakhapatnam to Vijayawada, or from Kakinada to Tirupati, it becomes necessary from them to urinate at two or three places. This is a basic necessity which is expected to be provided by Carrier, free of charge. Even if paid posh urinals are introduced for the convenience of richer passengers, and also to bring back RTC to profitability, they can't totally dispense with free urinal facility. Else how will the poor passengers survive?

A family of husband and wife with two children (standard family) will, now, have to spend Rs. 5x 4 = Rs. 20 just for urinating. From Visakhapatnam to Tirupati if they have to urinate at two or three Bus Stations, urine bill itself will come to Rs. 100/-. These hundred bucks, rich families may want to pay. It is a different thing.

LOW INCOME INDIANS CANNOT AFFORD PAID URINALS IN BUS STATIONS

From my livelihood survey in Residual Andhra Pradesh, most male family-heads, earn monthly Rs. 6,000 or Rs. 200 per day. If wife also works, they will get Rs. 12,000/- or Rs. 400 per day. Running an idli cart, or working in a shop as a sales person, this is the standard in Residual Andhra Pradesh.

IN COMPLETE SOCIALISM WHICH I AM TRYING TO POPULARISE, THIS BEGGARY WILL NOT BE THERE. EVERYTHING WILL BE FREE. PASSENGERS, PL. DO NOT BECOME BEGGARS

I was shocked to find that APSRTC has removed all vanilla free urinals in the Boarding Complex. I went to every such place, where now we have the fashionable board REST ROOMS, Rs. 5 tickets are being sold. When I was insisting on free vanilla urination toilet, the coupon-sales-clerks were just showing hands --> or <--. They were looking at me as though I was a beggar. When I saw the whole affair, I felt that APSRTC is going to charge even if you breathe in their premises. Pl. be beware. Hold your breathe.

ONE VANILLA URINAL NEAR ALIGHTING COMPLEX WILL ALSO GO INTO THE PAID GROOVE

After frontically searching for the free urination toilet, at last I found it in the Alighting Corridor. I can foresee. It is not going to remain there forever as free. They are going to convert into Rs. 5 Rest Rooms. Better, people wake up and approach the RTC Bosses / Government to prevent its conversion into posh Rs. 5 paid urinal.

COST OF TIFFINS

The prices of items in the Canteen are in the sky! The readymade explanation for the State of Affairs is: They have won the contract by participating in an auction. They can't recover costs unless they fix high rates.

SOLUTIONS for HIGH COST OF TIFFINS

RTC has created monopolies by licensing only 2 tiffins stalls in the premises. There is ample space in the Boarding Wing to accommodate more tiffin stalls. RTC can fix a fee, and issue licences for more number of tiffin stalls, creating a competitive climate. It will have to oversee in such a way that they do not form a cartel and jack up prices in tandem.

We do not expect RTC to subsidise tiffins and coffee. But, how can it become a party to day-light-robberies in its own Complex? Vijayawada is a Bus Station, where the daily turnover of Canteens will be very high. Then, the Canteens should be able to operate on a low profit margin, when compared to private stalls outside the bus station. Creating competition among tiffin stalls, with daily surprise checks by different sets of Squads will keep the Contractors on their tenterhooks.

CONTRACTORS CAN DISPLAY ON A CONSPICUOUS NOTICE BOARD THE COSTS OF THEIR PREVIOUS DAY'S PRODUCTION, AND DETAILS OF THEIR SALES REVENUE

Contractors can be encouraged/forced to set up sign boards which show their cost of production and their economics. We do not expect contractors to incur losses in these days of inflation. But, then they should be transparent. Let them disclose their economics to the people!

HOW ABOUT CHARGING MORE THAN MAXIMUM RETAIL PRICES FOR WATER BOTTLES ETC.?

In my survey, I found that some shops are selling Mineral Water Bottles at as high as Rs. 30/-. Passengers are captive, because if they go on arguing about MRP, they will miss their buses.

SOLUTIONS:

More number of stalls are to be opened. Daily surprise checks are to be carried out by a DIFFERENT SET OF OFFICIALS.

IMPORTANT OBSERVATION

This disease of charging even for breathing and urinating will spread to whole of India, then to the whole of Asia. Let us not worry what the Europeans and Americans, Canadians and ANZ will do. If they enjoy branding themselves with hot irons, let them do it for themselves. Why should we imitate them, saying that WE WANT WORLD CLASS BUS STATIONS, WORLD CLASS CITIES, and WORLD CLASS CAPIALS ! We not need anything SO EXCESSIVELY SMART. My journey from Vijayawada to Guntur in RTC Bus On SIX LANE NATIONAL HIGHWAY, too gave me this pain of being branded with hot irons. They have wasted away lot of agricultural lands for these six lane Highways, just to facilitate luxury cars to fly at High Speeds. Today, I believe that ordinary willagers who live on the side of National Highways, must be going through a hell, to take their bulls, buffalos, cows to the other side of the road.

TAIL PIECE धूमकेतु తోకచుక్క

Mr. Chandra Babu Naidu is wasting his own time, and the time of TV Channels by giving lectures. He can, incognito, visit the Vijayawada Bus Station and see with his own eyes, what is happening. Then, he can go back, and silently issue written instructions to the appropriate authorities for initiating corrective measures.

Mr. Naidu need not sacrifice his life.

Mr. Chandra Babu Naidu said many times, that he would sacrifice his life for serving the people. He need not sacrifice. But his security arrangements are to be done in such a way that ordinary people are not inconvenienced. Being stabbed by somebody or shot by somebody is an occupational hazard. But, this occupational hazard exists even for MROs Mandal Development Officers, Forest Officers, etc. When they die, Govt. provides some employment to their kith and kin, and pays some compensation. It does not provide bulletproof buses costing Rs. 55 million, or conduct Security Rehearsals with 100 commendos.

INAUGURATION COULD HAVE BEEN DONE BY RTC GENERAL MANAGER OR CEO

Instead of wasting money on Security Arrangements for inauguration (Altogether, these expenses may be Rs. 10 million), Mr. Naidu could have asked the CEO or CMD or RTC to inaugurate the Administrative Office. This would have minimised inconvenience to passengers. The CEO /CMD also would have been happy, to inaugurate his own work. Or they could have asked a Seniormost conductor / driver / mechanic to inaugurate.

MESSRS. NARA LOKESH and K. TARAKA RAMA RAO ARE READY.

Even in the case of Chief Ministers of Telugu land, Mr. Nara Lokesh, and Mr. K. Taraka Rama Rao are ready to take over. The Moghul System of sons imprisoning fathers and capturing the throne, unable to wait till the Emperor dies, has not yet started in the 21st Century INdia. It will start later. Right now, fathers themselves are eagerly annointing their sons-daughters to the throne, before they become restless.

769 (Part 1/10) of Review of Mr. Nara Chandra Babu Naidu's interview to DeccanChronicle.Com.

This blog has no affiliations. It neither loves or hates Messsrs. Donald Trump or Bernie Sanders or Vladimir Putin or Narendra Modi or (Ms.) Sonia Gandhi or Mr. Chandra Babu Naidu or Mr. Y.S. Jaganmohan Reddy. Writing impartial blogs is harder than fencing. Sometimes, we may inadvertantly give appearances of being biased. Then, we have a maxim: Practice makes a man perfect. Even if that goal of perfect impartiality is unattainable, (besides, there is no definition of what is partial and what is impartial), some amount of excellence is, and will be possible. Here is a Review of one interview given by Mr. Nara Chandra Babu Naidu, Chief Minister of Residual Andhra Pradesh State, India, to DeccanChronicle.Com. Click to go to DC and study the entire interview in its originality . Print Edition Reference: 4th June 2016, page 11 Top half.

Though whatever I am writing below has some 'Regional Scent of Andhra Pradesh', they are relevant even to other States of India, and even to other countries. Reason: Poor people of the entire World are caught in the entanglement of the tentacles of Smithsonian Capitalism. Today every country in the World is begging for foreign investments. Every country in the World have got installed Crony Capitalist Governments. Presidents and Prime Ministers, Governors and Chief Ministers are only dummies. The real rulers are the Business and Industrial Tycoons. Even the so-called self-publicising Communist countries like China, Vietnam, Cuba are not exceptions to this slavery(ies). Mr. Chandra Babu Naidu and Mr. K. Chandrasekhar Rao, Ms. Jayalalitaa, Ms. Mamata Banerjee, Mr. Narendra Modi, Mr. Arun Jaitley, Mr. Donald Trump, Ms. Hillary Clinton, Mr. Vladimir Putin, et al. are only small cogs in the international monstracity called Multi National Capitalism. The real rulers will always pull the strings from behind the screens. Hence, in a way Mr. Narendra Modi and Mr. Nara Chandra Babu Naidu deserve sympathies for their helplessness.

Here is a review of some of the answers given by Mr. Chandra Babu Naidu in the above linked interview:-

With works on the AP capital still in the initial stage, can you showcase Amaravati as your government’s achievement in the 2019 elections? How long will it take to build the capital?

A: We started from a minus stage. Before bifurcation of the state, did the idea of Amaravati exist? The state was divided and we needed a new capital. There was a lot of discussion about where the capital should come up. The Sivaramakrishna Committee had made a fuss. Then I decided that the capital should come up between Vijayawada and Guntur. We named it Amaravati.

Three hospitals and three universities have come forward to set up their units here. When infrastructure comes, it will take off one by one. Once the momentum picks up, the capital will take shape. I want to build one of the best capitals in the world. I can construct the administrative capital by the 2019 elections

yb's feeling: Who wants World Class Capital? Realtors and Industrialists may be pressing for such World Class Capital, so that they can flock on it like flies and mosquitoes on cadavers It is not correct to say that Sivaramakrishna Committee had made a fuss. It is a Committee of Experts. As all the members of the Committee are from outside the State, they can be free of bias. If they have not favoured new Amaravati as Capital for A.P., it may be because the Region is already overpopulated. People of Vijayawada are already living in asbestos/tin sheds on mountain slopes, because they cannot afford to buy a 80 sq.yds. piece of land to build a cottage. There is also a danger of River Krishna becoming a drainage channel for all the filth which the New Capital City generates. Committee might have felt that it will not be prudent to convert fertile lands to concrete forests. Then there is a threat of Kondaviti vAgu floods.

Whether Sivaramakrishna Committee had foreseen it or not, there were clear indications that there will be extremely abnormal real-estate speculation, and land-hoarding, amounting to billions of Rupees. By choosing Amaravati as Capital of Andhra Pradesh, Mr. Chandra Babu Naidu fell into the trap of Realtors and land-hoarders. M.L.A.s (of all parties), and his own Ministers have not objected to it because they were also eager to buy some land in the Capital Region, in their own name or in the names of their employees, friends and relatives. The Government used the carrot and stick approach to induce the farmers to contribute their lands to the land-pooling. That means, even the farmers of the area have been forced to become real-estate speculators, awaiting for allotment of plots to them in exchange for the land they surrendered, and counting their eggs when they sell the plots for some astronomical values.

ABOUT 3 HOSPITALS & 3 UNIVERSITIES COMING FORWARD

As per the News Reports, the Govt. is going to sell them the lands @ Rs. 80 lacs (8 million per acre), as against the ruling market price of Rs. 5 crore per acre. If the info is correct, A.P. Government will be doing a foolish thing, because the Universities and Hospitals, though are expected to function like Charitable Trusts with no Profit Motive, all over India (or even globally), it is an established fact, that Private Universities and Hospitals work with a clear profit motive. On paper, to the Government which allots land at cheap prices, they give all types of undertakings, to charge poor students and poor patients with velvet gloves, but they never keep their promises. They extract charges and fees at market rates from everybody.

If they are going to function on business lines, all the Private Universities and Hospitals should pay the Market price for land. They should never be given any concessions of any sort. Mr. Naidu can always say that Indian States are competing with one another to attract all these Universities and Hospitals. If A.P. does not give concessions, Telangana State will give. But this argument will not, really, be valid. Business Entities take their location decisions on perceived Medium and Long Term Profitability, which is a variable of numerous factors, not only the factor of land. This is the reason why Volksvagon is making cars in India, instead of in Congo. No Private University or Private Hospital will establish a Commercial Establishment in Mizoram, even if land is given freely. Why? They want to be nearer to their markets. Mizoram is at the tail end of the country. For this reason only, Governments have a duty to establish Public Sector Institutions and Units in remote areas.

What about the criticism that you have ignored local talent and instead opted for Singapore for the capital’s plan, design and construction?

A: You want me to build huts? Singapore has huge expertise and with prefab technology, buildings can be constructed within months. Scientific construction is important. China is also building quickly with prefab. Singapore is well-plann-ed and the most livable city.

yb's feelings: 1. Building 'own' huts is better than, handing over lands to foreign Corporates, and taking warrandahs or bath rooms out of their skyscrapers, in exchange. They will stipulate terms, and you will sign on dotted lines. Or you will stipulate terms, they sign on dotted lines, but never care to honor. If you insist, they will go for international arbitration. Or they will sue in a foreign court quoting some xyz Section. Indian Business HOuses, and some State Governments, PUblic Sector Undertakings, might have learnt some lessons from signing on dotted lines in agreements designed by foreign lawyers. Or they will bring pressure from some Tom-Dick-Harry President/Prime Minister of Europe, America, Canada, ANZ. Giving land to foreigners on lease or sale will be worse than throwing milk-kheer in a sacrificial fire, or feeding a kitten/puppy to a shark/lion. It will never come back.

2. Singapore may have some expertise. But does that mean that India is barren? India is launching satellites for Advanced countries like France. India is making Space Shuttles and Reusable Space Vehicles. Were Tajmahal and Tanjavoor Temple built with expertise from Singapore? Did we sculpt our Ajanta and Ellora caves with technology from Singapore? Did Singapore build Nagarjuna Sagar and Sri Sailam? Are all these constructions unscientific? Is only Singapore construction scientific? If China is building with prefab, India will also build with prefab, or even with more advanced technologies than prefab. If Singapore is well-planned and the most livable city, like Mr. Vijay Mallya, Mr. Naidu can also go to some Singapore or Switzerland and live there. (Mr. Naidu visited Switzerland in recent summer).

In our blogpost No.767 Click to go to 767 , we have seen how a tribal woman climbed the inner wall of a well to fetch a pot of drinking water.

.

This type of villages we have aplenty in Andhra Pradesh. A few days back, in Anantapur District, a serpant bit a woman her cottage. The woman, not knowing that it was a deadly poisonous snake which bit her, breast-fed her child. Both the mother and the child died. We should be grateful to Andhrajyothy.Com for publishing this news item: Click to go to Andhra Jyothy dated 3.6.2016.

గుత్తి రూరల్‌, జూన 2 : పాము కాటుకు ఓ మాతృమూర్తి మరణించగా, ఆమె పాలు తాగిన మూడేళ్ల చిన్నారి మృతి చెందాడు. హృదయ విదారకమైన ఈ ఘటన అనంతపురం జిల్లా గుత్తి మండలం కొజ్జేపల్లి గ్రామంలో జరిగింది. ఈ గ్రామానికి చెందిన లింగన్న భార్య చంద్రకళ (30)ను గురువారం తెల్లవారుజామున పాము కాటువేసింది. దీన్ని గమనించని ఆమె.. కాలి పట్టీ గుచ్చుకుని ఉంటుందని భావించి ఇంటి పనులు చేసుకోవడం ప్రారంభించింది. కొద్దిసేపటికి గుండెల్లో నొప్పిగా అనిపించడంతో భర్తకు ఆ విషయం చెప్పింది. అతడు ఆమెను గుత్తి ప్రభుత్వాసుపత్రి తీసుకెళ్లడానికి సిద్ధమయ్యాడు. తిరిగి వచ్చేందుకు సమయం పడుతుందని భావించిన చంద్రకళ.. వంశీకి పాలు తాగించింది. ఆసుపత్రికి వెళ్లగా.. పరీక్షించిన వైద్యులు ఆమెను పాము కాటువేసిందని చెప్పారు. చికిత్స చేస్తుండగానే అమె పరిస్థితి విషమంగా మారింది. పాము కరచిన తర్వాత పిల్లవాడిని పాలు తాగించిన విషయం తెలిసిన బంధువులు వంశీని కూడా గుత్తి ప్రభుత్వాసుపత్రికి తెచ్చారు. చిన్నారి పరిస్థితి విషమంగా ఉండడంతో అనంతపురం తరలించారు. అక్కడ చికిత్స పొందుతూ వంశీ.. గుత్తిలో చంద్రకళ కన్నుమూశారు. అనూహ్యంగా ఒకేరోజు పాముకాటుకు రెండు నిండు ప్రాణాలు బలికావడంతో జీర్ణించుకోలేని కుటుంబసభ్యులు కన్నీటి పర్యంతమయ్యారు.

Approx. Engl: Gooty Rural, dated 2nd June: When a mother bitten by a serpant died, her three year old child who drank her breast-fed milk also died. This heart-rending mishap took place in Kojjepalli village of Gooty Mandal, Anantapur Dt. Chandra Kala (30) w/o Linganna, r/o this village, was bitten by a snake early morning. She didn't notice it. Thinking that ankle's silver chain scratched to her legs, she went to attend her routine domestic chores. After a littlewhile, she felt a pain in heart, and she told her husband. He got ready to take her to the Gooty Govt. Hospital. Thinking that it will take sometime to come back, Chandrakala, breast-fed her son Vamsi. After examining her in hospital, Doctors told her that she was bitten by a snake. While treatment was being given to her, her situation worsened. Relatives having come to know that she breast-fed her son, took Vamsi also to Gooty Govt. Hospital. As the condition of the child also worsened. they shifted the child to Anantapur. While receiving treatment in Anantapur, Vamsi died, and in Gooty, Chandrakala died. In a most unexpected manner, when two full lives were lost, unable to digest the grief, family members were reduced into tears.

Mr. Chandra Babu Naidu can always say that he has taken some Insurance Policy to provide some accident protection to sufferers. Or he may say that he gave ... lacs as compensation to the relatives. But one basic question remains: Mr. Chandrababu Naidu says that he sleeps on a hard surface. Okay, cudos for his simplicity. But, why does he need a Custom-designed bus costing Rs. 55 million? Click to go to The Hindu, purchase of bus. How could he spend one billion Rupees on renovating his office? (inclusive of all costs and expenses) Click to go to TimesofIndia.indiatimes.com . Yet, the accomodation is only RENTED.

I shall try to review the remaining questions and answers of the interview of Mr. Naidu, if I live longer, and priorities do not cascade.

Subject to corrections and deletions. A lot more is to be added. To continue. सशेष. ఇంకా ఉంది.

709 India is a pluralist country. While BJP can pray gold-jewelled silk clad Bharat Mata, Kanhaiya & Co. can hail their own version of Bharat Mata. दो विभिन्न भारत माता साध्य है। రెండు భిన్నమైన భరతమాతలు సాధ్యమే.

Now, that Mr. Mohan Bhagavat, the Elderlyman of R.S.S. has clarified that they are not going impose the utterance of "Bharat Mata ki jai" as a token of nationalism or patriotism, the time has, probably come for us to treat the matter as closed, and start something else afresh. Let us hope that Mr. Mohan Bhagawat will not change his stance after the Elections to the State Assemblies of Tamil Nadu, Pondicherry, Assam, Kerala, Bengal are over.

Mr. Kanhaiah Kumar, the ecstatic-stance possessed JNU student leader, while speaking at Vijayawada, has raised one important pertinent question. The Bharat Mata of the Ruling Party is dressed in silk sarees and bejewelled with gold ornaments, whereas the 'typical Bharat Mata' as a representative of Indian Womanhood is a half-starved, wearing torn clothes, hard-working woman, beset by her hungry children beseeching her for food.

About this Kanhaiyakumar's Bharat Mata, there seems to be one article by the noted journalist Shri Akar Patel. Unfortunately, I could not get it and read it. I shall shortly fulfil this need.

But, in TimesofIndia-IndiaTimes.Com, there is one important blog which seems to be a response to Mr. Akar Patel's article. Here is its link: Click to go to TimesofIndia.indiatimes.com. date: 21st March 2016. .

The main theme of this blogger's (Shri Abhilash Gaur) is: "If you can’t stand Kanhaiya’s view of Bharat Mata, try Nehru’s", is its title. "You" here seems to refer to Mr. Akar Patel , or Readers who cannot adjust with Kanhaiya Kumar's vision of Indian Bharat Mata. This blog has quoted from Jawaharlal Nehru's Autobiography by name "India Old and New".

I furnish below a FREE DOWNLOAD LINK to Jawaharlal Nehru's autobiography, available at Archive.Org. It is about 444 pages in size. (Click to go to) Archive.org.

I am directly quoting from Late Jawaharlal Nehru's Autobiography, contents of which are self-explicit.

It is curious how one cannot resist the tendency to give an anthropomorphic form to a country. Such is the force of habit and early associations. India becomes Bharat Mata, Mother India, a beautiful lady, very old but ever youthful in appearance, sad-eyed and forlorn, cruelly treated by aliens and outsiders, and calling upon her children to pro tect her. Some such picture rouses the emotions of hundreds of thousands and drives them to action and sacrifice. And yet India is in the main the peasant and the worker, not beautiful to look at, for poverty is not beautiful. Does the beautiful lady of our imaginations represent the bare-bodied and bent workers in the fields and factories? Or the small group of those who have from ages past crushed the masses and exploited them, imposed cruel customs on them and made many of them even untouchable? We seek to cover truth by the creatures of our imaginations and endeavor to escape from reality to a world of dreams.

I respect your right. आपको मेरे मत से भिन्न राय रखने के संपूर्ण हक है। मै उस अधिकार को परिपूर्ण रूप से गौरव देता हुँ. మీకు, మీ భిన్నమైన అభిప్రాయాన్ని కలిగిఉండే సంపూర్ణ హక్కు ఉంది. దానిని ఎంతో నేను గౌరవిస్తాను.

1. Our word-juggler, and the Asst-de-Publicity man of our Resurgent India Shri Narendra Modi, i.e. our Parliamentary Affairs and Urban Development Minister, has two clarify about this two Bharat MatAs. Audi Alterim Partem.

2. While the BJP, RSS, ABVP, and their followers can pray to the crown-saffron-silk-gold version of Bharat Mata, others who do not want to hail the BJP Version of Bharat Mata, can hail the Kanhaiya Kumar Version of Bharat Mata.

3. Our country is accommodative and pluralistic. Let BJP and its associate bodies, not try to NARROW it down.

TAIL PIECE धुमकेतु తోకచుక్క

Mr. Kanhaiya Kumar has come to Hyderabad by air. Who bore his air-fare? Corporates will not bear. Of course, we should be fortunate, that though his mother's monthly income is just Rs. 3,000/-, he has not yet started using CHARTERED AIRCRAFT. When he becomes some Chief Minister or Prime Minister will he wear expensive coats?

Mr. Narayana, our CPI National Executive Member from Telangana, seems to be too eager to fly piggyback on Mr. Kanhaiya Kumar's back. He wrote one Telugu article in second top Telugu Daily Andhra Jyothi dt. 29.3.2016, indicating that he takes pride in supporting Kanhaiaya (kannayyaku maddatuku garva paDutunnAnu). Mr. Narayana, like Kanhaiya Kumar, seems to be a person in a hurry.

636 PART 1 OF TALE OF TWO CITIES भाग १- दो शहरों के दीन गाधा सप्त शति, భాగం 1 రెండు నగరాల బాధా గాధా సప్తశతి

Guntur City is reeling under water shortage today. गुंटूर शहर, पीने की पानी की कमी तीव्र रीती में बाधित हो रहा है। గుంటూరు నగరం తీవ్ర తాగునీటి కొరతతో బాధ పడుతున్నది. Though situated on the banks of the River Krishna, Vijayawada City (ONLY FOOLS will think that there is no water shortage in Vijayawada విజయవాడ నగరంలో నీటి కొరత లేదని కేవలం మూర్ఖులు మాత్రమే అనుకుంటారు.) too suffers from drinking water shortages in its outskirts. In many Apartment Complexes borewells have dried down, and the residents are experiencing shortage of water even for bathing and toilets. The influx of migrants from all the seventeen Districts of Residual Andhra Pradesh, (earlier the migrants used to flock to Hyderabad City) are now flooding Vijayawada and Guntur Cities.

Migrants from North Andhra Pradesh from Srikakulam to Krishna Districts try to settle down in Vijayawada. Migrants from Royala Seema and South Circar Districts try to settle down in Guntur City. Mangalagiri will become another migration point in near future. The cumulative effect of all these settlements is going to be drinking water shortage, and drying up of borewells for toilet waters. Govt. and Municipal Corporations can always taken an excuse, pointing out at this year's low rainfall, drought conditions, and drying up of Srisailam and Nagarjuna Sagar Reservoirs. That excuse is only partly true.

Predicting that water levels of Prakasam Barrage will fall so drastically, that drinking water will not flow with gravitation into Guntur Channel is not difficult. Arranging for pumping of water from Krishna River using Electric Motors should have been planned in advance, apart from getting additional drinking water released from Nagarjuna Sagar. Mr. Chandra Babu Naidu now camps on the Southern Bank of the Krishna River. Yet he did not bother to caution the officials and guide them to fix the motors well in advance. He cannot bother because he is too busy with Japan, China, Singapore, Chambers of Commerce, Bauxite Mining, and what not.

In reality, KRISHNA RIVER can be compared to Colarado River in United States, in the sense that every drop of water in these rivers are used up so fully that there will only be mud and swamps left out. Consequently, as a tail-end Region Krishna-Guntur Area is going to suffer from great thirst. One additional factor which has assumed serious dimension is, now Krishna Guntur Region is going to be dependent on the mercy of KCR & Co. even for drinking water. Krishna River Water Distribution Authority can only pass orders. But the execution is to be done by the Engineers of Telangana and Andhra Pradesh. If the Engineers of Telangana do not co-operate, the Engineers from Andhra side cannot fight quarrel everyday.

The problem gets exacerbated because both KCR and CBN are cunning, secretive and vindictive persons. They howl at one another on one day and embrace one another on some other day. Now that, there is a bon homie between K Chandra Sekhara Rao and CB Naidu, Mr. Chandra Babu Naidu may not seriously press KCR for release of drinking water to downstream villages and towns.

Predicting all these problems last year itself even before Capital of Andhra Pradesh was decided, I suggested in my numerous blog posts that, the new Capital of Residual Andhra Pradesh should be located at Nagarjuna Sagar South Bank, popularly called South Vijayapuri and its upstream Launch Boarding point to Nandi konda. If A.P. Capital is built on this barren land (free, forest waste land with thorny bushes and snake pits, with not much agriculture taking place), A.P. Capital could have drawn its drinking water from Nagarjuna Sagar Reservoir. Central Government would have easily permitted some 30 tmcs water to be drawn from Nagarjuna Sagar Reservoir upstream without depending on the Irrigation Canals or Power Generation Channels.

Today, for the existing population itself, Krishna River water is not adequate even for drinking needs of the two Cities. The Great Claimer of being a Great Builder Chandra Babu has projected that A.P. Capital City will have a population of 15 million (1.5 crore). If he is unable to supply drinking water for a population of about 1.5 million in Vijayavada and 1 million in Guntur, how is he going to arrange for drinking water for 15 million ? Of course he may not continue after 2019 ! Yet, whoever will be at helm of AP Capital, be it Lokesh or Jagan or Pawan Kalyan or Congress or Kiran Kumar's Party, are going to face a Herculean Problem. Wisdom lies in forecasting the forebodings, and initiate corrective action, meeting the risks half-way in advance. It is the dIrghadarSi method of living suggested in Indian Epic Mahabharata.



Even now, it is not too late. Better to shift the Capital of Andhra Pradesh to Upstream of South Vijayapuri and install pumps for drawing drinking water from Nagarjuna SAgar Reservoir for the requirements of AP's Capital. As there is no shortage of waste land in that area southwards upto Donakonda, Eastwards upto Macharla, Govt. can get rid of all the Headaches of Land Pooling for Capital. Straightaway, the Govt. can return all the LPS lands to the respective farmers and just apologise to them, for whatever has happened.

If Mr. Nara Chandra Babu Naidu is secretly indebted to Chinese / Japanese / Singaporean / South Korean / ... Corporates, he can still ask them to compete for building a Capital at Nagarjuna Sagar. Of course, all of them will shy away, because they want to induct the Citizens of Vijayawada - Guntur - Tenali into Gambling Dens and Licensed Prostitution Houses they are going to build, with liberal freehold and lease lands from Govt. of Andhra Pradesh. If they want to go back, they can be allowed to go back. We can then build our own Capital with indigenous resources.

From what Mr. Chandra Babu Naidu tells everyday and what he does regularly, we have to infer that he is hell-bent on and hopeful of getting some dirty money from Singapore. It seems he want to build another Makav in India. It will be better, if people try to gauge his goals.

To continue. सशेष. సశేషం.

428 Writers have only two real classes i.e. 1. Bourgeoise class 2. Workers' class

४२८ लेखकों को दो ही वर्ग रहना, पहला बूर्जुवा लेखक वर्ग, दूसरा श्रामिक लेखक वर्ग

౪౨౮ రచయితలకు ఉండాల్సింది రెండే వర్గాలు, మొదటిది బూర్జువా రచయితలు, రెండవది శ్రామిక రచయితలు.


The Organisors of the World Telugu Writers Conference, Vijayawada were reported to have said:

The third meet will focus on creating a feeling of togetherness among the Telugu speaking people of all places.

It is a known fact that the issue of State's bifurcation has created an uneasiness among the people of A.P. and Telangana.   But it is time that all the Telugus bury their differences and start team work 

ybrao-a-donkey's voice वैबीराव गधे के वाणी వైబీరావు గాడిద వాణి

Writers can have only two classes: Bourgeois writers, Worker writers.  If a particular  writer wants to find out his class, he can find it out,  not from his writings, but from his actions.  Or he can use a mirror at 0.00 hours.   Linguistic affiliations such as Telugu, Tamil, Regional affiliations such as Telangana , Andhra are all imaginary.

Telangana Telugu writers forgot this basic fact, and like their other intellectual counterparts (lawyers, doctors, PG students, etc.) wrote awful things about unity of Telugu people.   They along with Maoists of different colors, C.P.I.,  went ahead to support KCR & Co. ignoring the need for unity of all workers, whatever be their region / language / religion / caste.  


Both the All India Parties i.e. BJP and Congress, many Regional parties of India (probable exception CPM & Trinamool Congress, for their own reasons) supported the Andhra Pradesh Bifurcation Bill, in Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha, and got it passed in a heinous manner ,  when the Houses were in a State of Chaos, ignoring the resolution passed by combined Andhra Pradesh State Assembly, the views of the Chief Minister of combined A.P. at that time that there would be numerous future problems,  brushing aside the Lok Sabha Members from the Coastal Andhra and Rayala Seema as if they were some beggars clamoring for alms or swarming flies. 


The subsequent utterances, behavior and conduct, of KCR & Co. have also demonstrated their nefarious plans to tease the people of Coastal people and the Rayalaseema devising ingenious methods everyday.  As far as I can recollect, none of the 700 Telangana Telugu writers who are (said to be ) going to attend the have written anything criticising their nefarious plans, or the utterances of Telangana MPS, MLAs which were violative of basic human rights of people to migrate from one place to another (actually across countries.  In India, at least across States).

Writers must have conscience, sincerity and courage of conviction.  Then then need clear perspectives of different societies and the forces which try to exploit people.  They must have a clear understanding of reasons for the 'rots' of societies.



The hearts of Telangana Telugu writers (there may be some exceptions, traitors in their majority view) will not change in the near future.   Or their mindsets may not change at all, like the split minds of Pakisthan and India.  In the circumstances, there may not be any real utility by harping on the unity of Telugu people.  Even Pingali vAri pEki cannot unite Telugu people.  (Of course there will be caste/religion based unities, business-need based unities, which is outside the scope of this particular blog post.  It will be dealt with separately.)




Of course, the Chief Minister of RESIDUAL A.P. (Mr. Chandra Babu Naidu), Opposition Leader (Mr. Y.S. Jaganmohan Reddy) may have different ideas, because they have political ambitions and properties in both the States.  They want sufficient number of M.P.s under them, so that they can some day rule Delhi or manipulate coalition circars.


If the Residual Andhra Pradesh writers have a real strong desire that Telugu should become international language, they should pass a resolution asking the State Government, Universities to take up


1) restructuring of Telugu grammar, in such a way that MACHINE translation of Telugu web pages into English and other world languages becomes easy.  For this, inflections of nouns, pronouns, adjectives, verbs and adverbs are to be minimised, to match with number, tense, gender.  That means case indicator words (vibhaktulu) are to be standardised and written separately from the words they link and modify.


E.g.  vADu + ki = vADu ki (instead of vADiki at present).

vALLu + ki = vALLu ki (instead of vALLaki).



2) Future TELUGU language should be written and typed in Roman script, dispensing with the headache of fonts, Unicode, UTF-8 etc. etc.  Learning of Telugu language has become a problem for foreigners, Indians of other regions, due to numerous symbols (vattulu, gunintAlu) running into thousands.  Once we adopt Roman script (whether we like it or not we have to recognise that it is the Unofficial script of this world owing to computerisation), primary school and High School drops-out can be minimised.



More foreigners and non-Telugu Indians will be able to read Telugu web pages, and Telugu books in Roman script.   Telugu writers can expect global readership.

Question: Is Telugu script, really the best or the second best in in the world, because some seminar in Thailand decided that Korean script is the world's best, and Telugu is the world's second best?

Answer: Telugu script has many scientific elements which accurately represent sounds.  But that alone is not sufficient to make it the world's best script. 

Characteristics of a good functional script

The script should be easy to learn to new entrants.  It should not result in school drops-out, because there are too many complex signs to learn and remember.  The script should not be difficult to type and computerise.  Keyboards should not become complex. 

Need for OCR compatibility

Above all, today, simple scripts with few fonts can become OMR, OCR friendly.  Telugu script is not such script.  On the other hand English script (Roman script) is readable even with 8 bit ascii methods.  Many English fonts have become Optical Character readable.  In other words scanned printed English documents can be converted into typed paged pages, made into good ebooks, edited, etc. etc.  In near future, Telugu script cannot reach these goals. 


All Government communications should be in Telugu-Roman script

If we want to benefit more from technology, we should adopt and adapt ourselves, our languages, to the parameters and standards which the new technology needs.  Hence it will be very apt, if we write all our future documents, particularly Government communications in Telugu-Roman-script.  This also makes trilingualisation of all Government circulars, notifications, laws easy.  Machine translation methods can also be redesigned.


People residing in Residual Andhra Pradesh, should not make their State an andha Pradesh (An area which is blind).  Linguistic fanatism can be as blind as religious fanatism.  Now as natives of Telangana (including Telangana Telugu writers) parted their ways under the evil influence of KCR, the writers of Residual Andhra Pradesh should choose and follow a progressive path.

*Re-writing Telugu grammar to facilitate machine-translations,

*publishing all Government communications, common newspapers, facebook writings, blogs etc in Telugu with Roman Script,

*shedding excess love of one's own language,

*encouraging Telugu speakers to learn as many languages as possible so that they can globalise themselves -- all these will be progressive measures which do not require monetary investments. 


ONE YBRAO A DONKEY'S OBSERVATION WHICH MAY NEED CORRECTION LATER

EVERYBODY in Residual Andhra Pradesh knows that only one particular landed caste is ruling this State of Residual A.P.   Leaders of all other castes have been made ministers in such a manner that they remain subservient (sEvak, anusEvi) all the time, just as Nitish Kumar expected Manjhi to remain his sEvak and anusEvi.

This particular landed caste ruling A.P. is very crazy about language, script.  It is also the same landed caste which is crazy about real estate, imported cars, super speciality hospitals, donation Colleges etc. etc. 

This landed caste dominates the film industry by manipulating and monopolising  theatre leases .  It is not, therefore, difficult for them to get a few hundreds of crores alloted in the name of Telugu Writers Conferences, Telugu Mahasabhas.  It can also mobilise easily some dollar bucks from U.S.A. in the name of Telugu people, for conducting 'jAtaras'.

But the problems of the common people of the Residual Andhra Pradesh are different.

#033 ముందు రాజధానుల సంగతి తేల్చాలి First the Problem of States Capital should be settled

Telugu language & script: ముందు రాజధానుల సంగతి తేల్చాలి. First the problem of Capital should be settled. స్వల్పకాలిక దృష్టితో చూసినపుడు, విభజన వల్ల సీమాంధ్ర, తెలంగాణ రెండూ ఎక్కువగా నష్టపోతాయా అనిపిస్తుంది. కానీ దీర్ఘకాలిక దృష్టితో చూసినపుడు రెండిటికీ లాభమే. When we view from the angle of 'short term', it appears as though owing to the bifurcation of United Andhra Pradesh,-- both Telangana and Residual Andhra Pradesh will lose. But when viewed from a long term perspective, both will benefit.

కొన్నాళ్ళ వరకు హైదరాబాదు ఆదాయం పెరుగుదల నెమ్మదించదు. అయితే అది 23 జిల్లాల ప్రజలతో వచ్చే floating population, floating demand, ల మార్కెట్లను కోల్పోతుంది. పాత హైదరాబాదు రాష్ట్రానికి రాయచూర్, గుల్బర్గా, నాందేడ్, పర్భానీ, బీదర్, మొదలగు కర్నాటక, విదర్భ ప్రాంతాల మార్కెట్లు ఉండేవి. 1956లో ఆజిల్లాలను తెలంగాణా కోల్పోయింది. ఇప్పుడు రాయలసీమ, కోస్తాంధ్ర మార్కెట్లను కూడా కోల్పో బోతుంది, కాబట్టి హైదరాబాదు మాల్స్, ఉస్మాన్ గంజి, బేగం బజార్, రాష్ట్రపతి రోడ్, వంటివి నిస్తేజం అవుతాయి.
అయితే హైదరాబాదు నగరంపై ట్రాఫిక్ వత్తిడి తగ్గు తుంది. నీటి సరఫరా మెరుగవుతుంది. సిటీ బస్సులు ఖాళీ అవుతాయి. ధ్వని కాలుష్యం తగ్గుతుంది. వాయు కాలుష్యం తగ్గుతుంది.

రాయలసీమకు

వాతావరణ సూచన , రాజధాని ఎక్కడ ఏర్పాటు అవుతుంది అనేదాన్ని బట్టి ఉంటుంది.

అసలు కేంద్ర ప్రభుత్వం సీమాంధ్ర రాష్ట్రం యొక్క రాజధాని ఎక్కడ అనేది పరిష్కరించ కలుగుతుందని నేను అనుకోను. ప్రస్తుతానికి నేతలందరూ గుంభనంగా ఉన్నారు. మంత్రిణులు పురందేశ్వరి, పనబాక లక్ష్మి మాత్రమే విజయవాడ అన్నారు. విజయవాడ పరిసరాల్లో భూమి కొరత తీవ్రంగా ఉన్నది. గుంటూరు_ కర్నూలు, రోడ్, రైలు మార్గాల దుస్థితిని లెక్కలోకి తీసుకుంటే , కర్నూలు_విజయవాడ_విశాఖల్లో ఏది రాజధాని అయినా రాష్ట్రప్రజలకు నరకయానం తప్పదు.

కర్నూలుని రాజధాని చేస్తే అక్కడికి కోస్తాంధ్రుల వలస తప్పని సరి అవుతుంది. అప్పుడైనా ప్రత్యేక రాయలసీమ ఉద్యమం పైకెగయక మానదు. ఆపనేదో ఇప్పుడే చేసుకుంటే అచ్చమ్మ పెళ్ళి లో బుచ్చమ్మ శోభనంలాగా, తెలంగాణాతో పాటు రాయలసీమ సమస్యలు కూడా పరిష్కార మార్గం పట్తాయి.

కోస్తాంధ్రకు

రాజధాని ఉన్నా, లేకున్నా, కోస్తాంధ్రకు ఒక్క రాష్ట్రం లేక రెండు రాష్ట్రాలు లాభదాయకం. 1.ఉత్తరాంధ్ర, విశాఖ లేక రాజమండ్రి రాజధానిగా. 2.దక్షిణాంధ్ర. విజయవాడ, గుంటూరు, ఒంగోలు, నెల్లూరు, ఏవైనా రాజధానికి అర్హమైన ప్రదేశాలే. నెల్లూరును వారు కోరితే రాయల సీమలో కలిపినా వారికి ఇబ్బంది ఉండదు.

కొత్త రాష్ట్రం అభివృధ్ధి పథంలో దూసుకు వెళ్లటం మటుకు నిశ్చయం. హైదరాబాదు చుట్టూ తిరగ వలసిన అవసరం తప్పుతుంది.

ఏది ఏమైనా అన్ని ప్రాంతాల తెలుగు వారు ఏకమై ఐకమత్యంగా చర్చించుకొని చిన్నరాష్ట్రాల దారి పట్టటం మేలు. కెసీఆర్&కో, దానికి దాసురాలైన సోనియా , మరియు కేంద్రాల పెత్తనం నుండి బయట పడాలంటే ఐకమత్యం అవసరం.
