Telangana asked the Supreme Court to lift its May halt on tree-felling near KBR Park so seven flyovers and six underpasses can move. The Court listed it; the politics will try to spin the rest.
BRS asks for a sitting-judge probe, a white paper and the full Section 22A list. The Congress government admits errors — then asks everyone to trust the fix they won’t publish.
MEA blocks Revanth Reddy’s US leg citing an ‘inappropriate’ programme. A tentative Zohran Mamdani meet drew BJP heat. Telangana’s pitch to investors can wait; Delhi’s gatekeeping did not.
Trade tracking says Telugu topped Yash’s Toxic US premiere bookings. Audited data? Not published. Telugu diaspora still showed up first.
At Gandhi Bhavan, Congress MP Chamala Kiran Kumar Reddy said the BJP and BRS are “blocking Telangana’s development”. The paperwork says something duller: proposals pending at the BJP-led Centre, tenders moving on Musi, and big semiconductor approvals sited — very specifically — in Gujarat and Assam. That is not one conspiracy; it is five different dossiers and a press line tying them together.
Early-hours collision on NH-65 near Kodad; police, responders rushed the injured to hospital. Injury counts vary across reports; official tally awaited.
Harish Rao gives the Congress government till September 7 to scrap GO 97 or face a Secretariat protest with polytechnic students. The state says nothing is being privatised; students aren’t buying it.

A claim doing the rounds says Telangana’s Congress government has okayed Andhra’s Polavaram–Banakacherla link and will sign an MoU in September. The public record shows objections, not approval. The BJP-led Centre hasn’t cleared it either.
Congress says BJP and BRS are stalling Telangana. The record shows one thing clearly: the BJP‑led Centre nixed the Chief Minister’s US leg while clearing the UK one — and won’t say more than “not appropriate to the office.” The rest of Congress’s list needs documents, not decibels.
A clip of fish being cooked near a Congress-linked welcome in the Ayodhya region turned into a BJP morality play. The evidence for “Ajay Rai ate fish” is still where it started: nowhere on record.
CWC and NDSA told the Telangana High Court that day‑to‑day operating calls on Kaleshwaram sit with the state’s dam‑safety wing and project authority. Translation: Delhi’s agencies will advise; Hyderabad must decide — and live with it.
CM Revanth told officials to speed up land acquisition, draft a land‑pooling policy and “invite Phase‑2 tenders at the earliest.” On the public record today: instructions. The deliverables — policy on paper, acquisition notices, uploaded tenders — are still missing.
BRS wants a judicial probe. The Congress government says it’s fixing ‘errors’. The documents say the problem exists. Publish the list, or stop calling it hype.
The BJP-led Centre blocked the US leg of Telangana CM Revanth Reddy’s outreach, muttered something about “appropriateness”, and left Telangana’s education-and-investment pitch on the tarmac. The itinerary to Harvard–MIT was apparently too much; Oxford in London was fine. Funny where “protocol” gets strict.
Trade reports put Ravi Teja’s latest at ₹50.30 crore India net and ₹71.87 crore worldwide in three days. The records are big; the receipts are, as usual, off-stage.

TPCC’s disciplinary panel hands a sealed report on Konda Surekha and G. Chinna Reddy to its chief, promises “strict action”, and punts the decision to Delhi. Telangana is asked to wait while the high command thinks about it.
