Locomotive chugs in; seats waiting
Astride two regions, mega star Chiranjeevi is trying to play NTR by contesting from Tirupati and Palacole in his native West Godavari district. The resemblance may end there as 25 years after NTR’s avant... The Pulichintala debate
Pulichintala, the ambitious project of the Y S Rajasekhara Reddy government, is a long-cherished dream of farmers in the Krishna delta region. The Pulichintala dam, 1,290 metres long and 42 metres high, is proposed to be built with an estimated cost of Rs 566 crore...Family contest in Armoor
Surrounded by nine bewitching hills, the agriculture-rich Armoor, also known as Navanathapuram is geared up for an interesting ‘all in the family’ contest in this citadel of Congress. The vagaries of...The quintessential nehruvian: Jaipal Reddy
Hyderabad: He has been a trend-setter and the fact that the delimitation exercise has left him without his constituency, Miryalguda, has allowed him to stay off the beaten track yet again. Quite aptly, even though it entailed a shift of districts from Nalgonda to Ranga... A brand new innings for Azhar

Amudalavalasa: It’s called Amudalavalasa but you don’t find too many castor (amudalu) plantations in this corner of north coastal Andhra. But it’s an interesting name which derives from its name from Asokan times. It was then called Herandapuram, heranda in Sanskrit...Goud enough to be relevant?

Brick by brick towards a hutless AP
Laxmi Devi, a 28-year-old labourer, had a dream to build a house. Living hand to mouth with husband and son in a dingy hut on the outskirts of Garladinne in Anantapur district, she had no hope of life ever becoming kinder. “In spite of having two acres of land, we had to... KCR trying to lose
I’m going to ask you now to imagine some weird things. Just go along with it and then later, you tell me how shockingly real they are. Pretend a man is riding on a fully-grown male tiger. He has been on the tiger... 192 views | 0 recommendations | 0 comments
