BRS says five acres in Raviryal went to a company allegedly linked to the Chief Minister’s brother for a fraction of its value. The Congress government says nothing to see here; the Lokayukta has reportedly taken the complaint on file.
Draft rolls list 21.70% electors as absent/shifted/dead/duplicate. Claims can be filed till Sept 16; hearings run to Oct 15. Final roll is due Oct 19. So the scare stories can wait their turn.
BRS cadres protested statewide over Kalyana Lakshmi/Shaadi Mubarak delays after a High Court stay. The Congress government says the schemes will continue and an appeal is coming. The budget carries ₹3,683 crore for them — now release it, with dates.
Reports say Revanth Reddy’s loyalists met; nobody will say where, who, or with what authority. The Parkal ticket row is on the record. The headcount is not.
TPCC hauls up minister Konda Surekha over her daughter’s outburst at CM Revanth; MLAs demand action. The rest — cabinet sacking, Governor notes — is still whispers, not orders.
BRS challenges Speaker’s rejection of 10 disqualification pleas; petitioners say contesting on Congress ticket is quitting by conduct, resignation or not.
Revanth Reddy backed the sitting MLA in Parkal. A minister’s daughter wants the ticket anyway — and says she’ll run even without it. The Congress is now issuing notices to its own instead of answering who decides in Telangana: the Chief Minister, the TPCC, or an Instagram story.
Delhi says Revanth Reddy’s proposed US programme wasn’t “appropriate” to his office; UK leg cleared. Telangana BJP insists it’s routine procedure, nothing political. The MEA hasn’t shown what, exactly, failed the test.
BRS shuts Narsampet over the removal of former MLA Peddi Sudarshan Reddy’s statue/pedestal. One outlet says police picked up Errabelli Dayakar Rao en route; the Congress government in Telangana hasn’t bothered to explain either the demolition or the detentions.
Telangana MPs say they took a long list to South Central Railway. The BJP-led Centre and SCR still haven’t bothered to say where the projects stand.
Telangana’s draft electoral rolls are up. About 2.65 crore electors are reflected after enumeration; claims and objections run till September 16, with final rolls due October 19. The scare about “21% deleted” is still an estimate, not a verdict.
Telangana HC is hearing challenges to the Speaker’s cleanup job that let 10 BRS MLAs walk. The case is simple: switch teams in public, you switch under the Tenth Schedule. The Congress would prefer nobody noticed.
BJP’s Alleti says he has “complete evidence” on 102 shell firms and Rs 15,000 crore ‘illegal’ land transfers linked to Revenue Minister Ponguleti — and will send it to central agencies and Rahul Gandhi. Documents were not shown.
Harish Rao wants a white paper on every property the Congress government put on the Section 22A prohibited list since 7 December 2023. The ask is basic: count it, justify it, and fix the mistakes the government already admits exist.
Complaint, slogans and a “we’ll examine it” later, the Congress in Wanaparthy is still arguing with itself while pretending it’s discipline.
At an Asifabad Indiramma houses function, BRS MLA Kova Laxmi asked how many of the 3,500 first‑phase houses in her constituency exist outside a file. Minister Jupally Krishna Rao said the scheme is for the poor and asked for written complaints if ineligible got in. The Congress government has yet to publish who got what.
Telangana High Court told Congress-side respondents to file counters in the BRS disqualification challenge. ‘Final opportunity’, two weeks — a deadline national parties usually treat as advice.
Congress’s Telangana unit reportedly hauls up its own minister over her daughter’s Parkal challenge — while the Chief Minister it serves hasn’t answered the charge she laid at his door.
Harish Rao alleges 30% ‘commission’ to clear 22A bans; the Congress government in Telangana admits private owners were hit by errors, promises fixes. The numbers and the paper trail are the test — not another assurance.
TPCC says it has sought minister Konda Surekha’s explanation after her daughter Konda Sushmita’s public swipe at Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy in Parkal. The allegations she lobbed remain unverified; the Congress-led government is yet to address a single particular.
