A small contribution to a great movement

Telangana has always been very close to my heart partly because I am born and brought up in this region and partly because this is one region in our country where people are exploited for centuries by invaders and then betrayed and put to sufferings for decades by our own Governments in an open democratic set up.

It's very fortunate to see the movement reaching peaks in the recent times. Till Dec 09, every politician and every so called intellectual thought that these people of Telangana would always be betrayed and that they can play "T" factor forever for their personal benefits. But what they forgot to note is that 2010 is different from 1969. People have become educated. They have become aware of their rights and realized the need for their rights. Today, even a common man has started questioning the Government and Political parties about their rights.

When even a common man is participating in the movement with a great conviction by spending all his time, efforts and resources, if we being the most fortunate people of Telangana having received the best possible education do not participate then there is no meaning for our education. These thoughts keep on bothering me day after day. But this bloody professional never left any time to lead a natural life. Had I not studied in BITS, I wouldn't have had this pressure to continue in this corporate world and become a slave. I would have happily taken up things of my choice. I am sure most of you share similar such feelings. Unfortunately, this suffering doesn’t seem to end in the near future.

Nevertheless, it’s our duty to do our best within the constraints and contribute to the cause. So, around 10 of us who share similar thoughts came together and planned to submit a memorandum to Shri Krishna Commission representing professionals of Telangana region. The moment we planned to submit the report, the work has started. Each one of us have put lot of efforts and time in deciding the format, data collection, analysis and then presentation and finally coming up with a comprehensive report in weeks time. here is the small contribution that we made to the great movement in independent India. Part1 and Part2
