Red light for Telangana, green for Gujarat

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.

GO 97 gets a deadline

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.

41% ‘prohibited’? Show the book

Revenue Minister Ponguleti says 1.017 crore acres sit on the 22-A prohibited list in Telangana — about 41% of total land. Errors are admitted, fixes promised. The BJP and Congress can trade lines; Telangana needs the ledger.

Banakacherla “done deal”? Show the paper

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.

US leg blocked, UK okayed

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.

Musi gets another meeting, not tenders

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.

MEA says “not appropriate”. For whom?

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.

Congress ‘strict action’: lots of fog, no fire

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.

Congress throws blame, skips proof

A Congress MP says BJP and BRS are blocking Telangana’s development, even diverting semicon projects to Gujarat. The paper trail he needs to prove it is missing. We checked.

HC flags politics, spares PwD brides

Interim stay on Kalyana Lakshmi/Shaadi Mubarak largely holds; differently‑abled brides carved out. Court asks why MLAs need to hand cheques. Congress government’s homework is still pending.

Strike paused, promises started

Auto unions stepped back from an indefinite strike after talks with Transport Minister Ponnam Prabhakar. What’s delivered so far: one avoided shutdown. What’s on paper: assurances, meetings and studies the BJP-led Centre won’t lose sleep over.
