Higher officials found guilty by Vimal Lal commission, therecommendation were never implemented.76) Technically it is possible to develop water grid to benefit Telangana,Rayalaseema and Andhra regions – it would match in comparison withMississippi river water system (USA), Three Gorges river system (China),Nile river (Aswan dam) Africa and Rhine river system Europe. Similar modelswere conceived by intellectuals but are trashed by Andhra rulers and pseudointellectuals because they will benefit Telangana.77) 1969 - after Jai Telangana movement 'All Party Accord' was formulated,scrapped within 6 months. Than 8-point formula, 5-point formula wereannounced. then supreme court upheld Mulki rules. Andhra elites could notdigest it, launched Jai Andhra movement. Central govt yielded as usual toelites tactics, then 6-point formula. Even this is being violated royally manytimes, robbing Telangana its rightfulness.78) Nagarjuna Sagar initially meant to benefit Andhra and Telangana. Later on itis modified in such a way that 75% of the benefit is accruing to Andhrareducing the share of Telangana region to just 25%. Andhra settlersown 50% of these 25% utilization lands.79) Singur project was originally designed to meet primarily the irrigation needsof Medak and Nizamabad districts. But it is now solely used for meeting therequirements of capital city.80) Jurala Project which is the first project on river Krishna meant for Telangana,is the smallest of all the projects built on this river.

The funniest fact is, Sriram sagaris yet to be completed for last 40 yrs which provides water for just 4 lakhacres. Telangana people are supposed to believe the promise.83) Two major projects proposed on river Godavari are Ichampally andPolavaram. Ichampally is meant for Telangana and Polavaram for Andhra.The irrigation potential of Polavaram Project would be 6 to 7 times more thanthe irrigation potential of Ichampally. Ichampally is going to be primarily apower project not a irrigation project !84) Andhra lands are irrigated by canal irrigation i.e. with tax payer’s money.Andhra farmer pays Rs 200 - 300 per annum as water charges. Telanganalands are irrigated by bore wells, entire cost is on the farmer . Digging, power,bore well, motor, pipes. He struggles with fluctuations in power supplies withirregularities and pathetic power distribution pattern in Telangana.85) Technological University was actually started in Warangal but was shifted toHyderabad, Open University was originally Nalgonda district but was latershifted Hyd.

NTPC is running with same coal, VTPS isrunning with same coal. Subsequently, Fertilizer plants are started in Nelloreand Andhra.88) Based on the proportionality at least 40% of jobs, i.e. 6 lakhs, should havegone to Telangana. But the total number of jobs now occupied by them isless than 3 lakhs.89) 1972, PV Narasimha Rao made an attempt to implement the verdict ofSupreme Court validating the Mulki Rules. The verdict was in favor ofTelangana. Seemandhra gave outrageous reaction, he lost hisChief Ministership.90) If it is assumed that the leaders of a region becoming chief ministers cancontribute to the development of that region, then why do the people ofRayalaseema complain of backwardness ?91) Daily wage workers working in industries – from Andhra (9 districts) 3.16lakhs, from Rayalaseema (4 districts)– 0.7 lakhs, Telangana (10 district)0.81 lakhs.92) Andhra controlled media never highlighted migration of 15 lakh people outof 24lakh population from Mahabubnagar due to draught conditions.T. Anjaiah CM of AP from Telangana region was presented as a buffoon indailies and cartoons.93) At the time of merger Andhra leaders persuaded Telangana leaders byoffering many safeguards against exploitation. They also passed aUnanimous Resolution’ in November 1955 in Andhra Assembly in support ofsafeguards and subsequently they put these safeguards in an Agreement on20th February. 1956 which is known as “Gentlemen’s Agreement”. All aretrashed soon after the agreement is signed.94) Proportional representation says Telangana should get 42% jobs in theSecretariat, but only 9% are working now. How can a people representative,MLA, MLC can get a work done if 91% do not help ?95) Metro Rail project is being designed dilapidating 5000 shops, 2500 houses,147 schools, 120 hospitals, 60 Temples/Masjid/Churches. Historicalmonuments will disappear. All shops and complexes throughout Metro railroute are with Seemandhra thugs.96) 1947 India got Independence. 1948 Indian Army did police action todethrone Nizam. Hyd state existed from 1949 to 1956. Telangana merged withAndhra against its wishes in1956. Telangana has nothing to do with PottiSriramulu.97) Telangana Sayudha Poratam, (Telangana armed struggle) was againstNizam facist rule, 4000 people died - inspired all subsequent land movementsin West Bengal, Kerala and Tripura and paved way for formation ofCommunist governments in those States. This is never acknowledged bySeemandhra rulers so far.98) Despite 69% Krishna, 79% Godavari flows through Telangana, irrigation costis Rs.1500/acre. 13% of Krishna, 21% Godavari flows through Andhrairrigation cost is Rs.150/acre.99) Per capita income of Madhya Pradesh: Rs 18,051. Chattisgarh formed in2000. Per capita income of Chhattisgarh in 2008-09 - Rs. 29,621. Recentlyformed smaller states are catching up with Haryana is 71%, Himachal is 81%and Uttarakhand is 75% - now Jharkhand 58%, Chhattisgarh 63%. Also, Infantmortality UP 67%, Uttarakhand 44%.100) Yr 2008 Targeted growth rate & achieved: bigger states: MP 7% - 4.3%;UP 7.6% - 4.6%; Bihar 6.2% 4.7%smaller states: Chhattisgarh 6.1% - 9.2%; Jharkhand 6.9% - 11.1%Uttaranchal 6.8% - 8.8%101) Since 1956 to date, the additional irrigation potential created in Telangana isonly 5%102) There are 10,000+ Industrial units in Telangana, 1200 are owned byTelanganites, 6500 are owned by Seemandhra, rest are by outsiders.103) Proportionally Telangana should be given about 43% in budget allocation,Since 1953, it never exceeded 30%. Yet Telangana contributes 42% ofrevenue to the state exchequer.104) Nizamsagar was built in 1931 to serve Nizamabad and Medak about 2.7lakh acres of land. It was neglected for maintenance and improvements,now satellite images prove that all its 83 tributaries, 243 distributaries havebeen silted up and eroded. World bank sanctioned 30 crores for the project,which was never spent. The project now going to be almost useless.105) In Andhra region every year two crops are cultivated because of wateravailability, in Telangana a single crop will be cultivated with greatdifficulty.106) Technical institutions wise, 26 are in Telangana, 54 are in Andhra. 20polytechnics in Telangana, 70 in Andhra. 2 Medical colleges inTelangana, 6 in Andhra.107) British build Railways, Administrative Services, Post and Telegraph,installed democratic institutions, judiciary, rule of law, and built the cities ofKolkata, Mumbai and Chennai, and New Delhi. British did not claim any ofthese when they had to leave India. Seemandhra are making big hue andcry clamoring for Hyderabad claiming they have built the city. In 400 yrs ofHyderabad history, how many years did they contribute the 'development' ?108) Hyderabad - demographic expansion can never be considered as adevelopment. It’s natural growth. It is like a girl who is 10 yrs now willattain 15yrs of age after 5 yrs – can we call it development ? Also, itsnot just Hyd which is developed … all big/medium cities in India are indevelopment path.
