The Government of Andhra Pradesh is hell bent on leaving behind just a skeleton of Telangana, when they finally leave state is bifurcated into Telangana and Andhra. The eyes of the Seemandhra usurpers have always been fixed on goring out the twin jewels of Telangana, the city of Hyderabad and the Singareni Coal Mines. While one wing of these vested interests is busy fomenting communal riots in the twin cities of Hyderabad and Secunderabad, so as to fulfill the prophecy of their gang leader Lagdapati, on Hyderabad falling a victim to communal riots if it continues as the centuries old capital of Telangana (Hyderabad) state. The other is working overtime to get its clutches on to the Singareni Coal Mines.
Not, a month goes by without an attempt being made to usurp these mines from the Telangana people. A few months back, the Tadicherla coal mines in Karimnagar, part of the Singareni Collieries geological area, were all but sold off to ETA-ECCI-PLR, Joint Venture, a company promoted by Kadapa MP Y. S. Jaganmohan Reddy and the AP state forest minister P. Ramachandra Reddy, both hailing from Seemandhra region.
The latest plot of the Seemandhra lobby to get this Navratna of Telangana within its greedy grasp was unveiled by S. Narsing Rao, the Managing Director of SCCL. Speaking to the press, last week on the occasion of releasing the annual financial report of SCCL, he stated, that Singareni Collieries Company Limited (SCCL) has decided to invite private participation in extracting coal from ‘unviable' projects where the cost of production is more than the present sale price. Narsing Rao, went on to add that, SCCL is planning to develop two to three clusters allowing interested private players to use part of reserves and sell the rest to SCCL. “We will not make any investment in the projects, but will get share of coal,”
The Seemandhra lobby seems to be have hit upon this gullible ploy to get its hooks on to the Singareni Coal Fields of Telangana. The ground work for this sell off of Telangana’s natural wealth under pretext of private participation seems to be have been almost completed, and SCCL is gearing up to issue the advertisements for this.
It is a moot point as to who will be the successful bidders to get hold of these mines. And all this talk of unviability of these mines is nothing but eyewash to legitimize this daylight robbery of Telangana assets. The game plan of the Andhra Pradesh Government is obvious, strip Telangana of all its wealth and leave behind a skeleton of dead hopes, sold off assets, and parched fields for the Telangana people to nurture. It is upto to us the people of Telangana, to be on our guard and protect our treasures from being auctioned off by these white collar Seemandhra bandits.
Jai Telangana. Jai Hind

The Eerie Silence of Narasimhan on Communal Clashes in Hyderabad
The Governor of Andhra Pradesh, has been silent on the communal strife in the twin cities of Hyderabad and Secunderabad. The same Narasimhan who was hyper active in leading the State Administrations’ brutal handling of the Telangana struggle has not uttered even a single statement asking for peace save alone convening a high level meeting of the State functionaries to monitor the situation. Even as the twin cities of Hyderabad and Secunderabad burned, ESL was busy attending the prize distribution ceremony organized by the Andhra Pradesh branch of the Indian Red Cross Society.
Narasimhan, the protégé of the Seemandhra lobby, had within a fortnight of moving into the Raj Bhawan in Hyderabad, had a report prepared on the Naxal and Maoist influence on the Telangana movement. Now, when all evidence points to the handiwork of outside elements in the communal flare up in Hyderabad, there is not a single directive emanating from the Raj Bhawan on this.
Narasimhan had called a high level meeting of the State Government, and had gone as far as to upbraid the Home Minister, Sabita Indira Reddy on the state’s mild response to the Telangana movement. After, Narasimhan moved into the Raj Bhawan post the orchestrated ouster of ND Tiwari, the Andhra Pradesh administrations response to Telangana movement became draconian, the police wielded lathis, water canons and fired rubber pellets at hapless students with impunity. Neither a single rally nor a public meeting could be held without the sanction of the courts, and then too it was disrupted by the state administration. Contrast this with the current situation, not only were religious processions of both communities allowed in a hyper sensitive atmosphere, but were given the Governments blessings. AK Khan, who led the ruthless charge against the hapless students of Telangana, was but a mute spectator when the mobs went on a communal rampage.
Did not the fact that the same flags totaling over a few lacks were put up across the twin cities of Hyderabad and Secunderabad, for both Milad Ul Nabi and Hanuman Jayanti, awaken even the slightest suspicion in the former intelligence Officer ESL Narasimhan and the IG of Police AK Khan. Their unnatural silence on this means only one thing they are aware of the identity of the people responsible for this flare-up but cannot act against this lobby as it is detrimental to their interests. Now that Lagdapati's prophecy about Hyderabad being torn by Communal strife if Telangana is formed has come true. Narasimhan will get his minions in the Intelligence Department busy in preparing a report on the delicate communal balance in Hyderabad that can erupt at any moment if Telangana is formed.

Communal Clashes in Hyderabad – Handiwork of Anti-Telangana Lobby
The city of Hyderabad has for the last few days been racked by communal clashes. The peace loving people of Hyderabad have been thrown into communal strife after a lapse of nearly two decades of peace. In the past, there has always been a visible emotionally charged trigger that set off these violent incidents, starting with the Rameezabi case in the late 70’s to the Babri Masjid demolition in the early 90’s. This time round there has been no trigger for the spate of senseless violence that the city is witnessing.
There were indications emanating from several quarters that were indicative of the coming violence for the last fortnight. The ground was being carefully prepared to create a situation whereby the Telangana struggle could be relegated to the back pages of the dailies prior to receiving a quiet burial by the Sri Krishna Commission. The first sign of this came from Lagdapati, the voice of the anti Telangana lobby, he made a statement last week in Vijayawada prophesizing the city of Hyderabad will be besieged by anti National forces if Telangana is formed. And within a fortnight the city of Hyderabad is afflicted by a communal fire that started with no visible and understandable reason.
The current flare-up of communal passions has been planned with precision and perfect timing. The people of the twin cities of Hyderabad and Secunderabad from both communities are surprised at the violent turn of trivial incidents, which no one could foresee. All this points to an outside hand, and to know who is behind this carnage of a peaceful city, we need only follow the benefits trail. The immediate fallout of the current situation is the issue of Telangana’s statehood, which has been relegated to the back ground, and this benefits the Telangana detractors. It is upto to us the people of Hyderabad to see to it that the nefarious intentions of these anti social elements are defeated.
It is my earnest appeal to our Brothers and Sisters in Hyderabad do not fall into the clutches of our common enemy and fall prey to his machinations. Our enemy are the people who are opposed to our State of Telangana. He is both ruthless and cunning to pit one brother against the other. Let us stand united in this hour of need of our beloved city, Hyderabad. Like the British our detractors plan on dividing us to continue with their tyranny over our region. Remember we have a higher cause calling us, the liberation of our motherland from the clutches of these Seemandhra usurpers. And we can achieve it only if we stand united and turn a deaf ear to the words of these serpents. For if today we fall prey to his insinuations, we will lose our city and our state of Telangana forever.
