A tribute to former CM Rosaiah on third death anniversary

Telangana Chief Minister Revanth Reddy honored the memory of former Chief Minister K Rosaiah on his third death anniversary, praising his discipline, statesmanship, and extensive public service spanning over five decades.

Speaking at a commemorative event at Hyderabad International Convention Centre (HICC), Madhapur, Reddy highlighted Rosaiah’s exceptional contributions, particularly as the Finance Minister of undivided Andhra Pradesh, where his fiscal management left Telangana with a surplus budget of ₹16,000 crore at its formation.

On the third death anniversary of former Chief Minister K. Rosaiah, we remember a leader whose unparalleled dedication and statesmanship left an indelible mark on both Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. Rosaiah’s legacy is one of wisdom, integrity, and selfless service to the people, earning him respect across political lines and enduring admiration in both Telugu states.

Rosaiah served in various crucial roles, including Finance Minister, Chief Minister, and Governor, throughout a remarkable political career that spanned over five decades. His tenure as Finance Minister of undivided Andhra Pradesh was particularly noteworthy for his fiscal prudence, leaving the state in a position of financial stability. At the time of Telangana’s formation, Rosaiah’s leadership had ensured that the state inherited a surplus budget of ₹16,000 crore, which contributed to laying the foundation for its prosperous future.

As the Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh, Rosaiah exhibited an unflinching commitment to public service and governance. Despite never aspiring for the top position, he was entrusted with the role during a critical phase, which he handled with dignity and resolve. Rosaiah’s calm and composed demeanor earned him the respect of his colleagues and opponents alike. His tenure as Governor of Tamil Nadu was marked by exemplary service, devoid of controversy, something rare for a leader in such a high office.

Beyond his administrative achievements, Rosaiah was a mentor to many, known for his guidance and encouragement. His dedication to uplifting others, particularly in the political arena, was a testament to his belief in the power of education and knowledge. He believed in the importance of debate, discourse, and constructive criticism within democratic systems, always striving to uphold the dignity of the legislative body.

Rosaiah’s humility, integrity, and unwavering commitment to his principles were a beacon of inspiration to all who worked with him. His political acumen, steady hand in governance, and ability to navigate the complexities of statecraft are qualities that continue to inspire future generations.

As we remember K. Rosaiah, we honor not only his service but also the values he embodied—a leader who never sought power for its own sake but instead used it to serve the people with honor and dedication. His legacy remains a guiding light for the people of Telangana and beyond, a true statesman whose contributions will never be forgotten.

Hyderabad: The Telangana government is set to ban overage vehicles from plying on the roads of Hyderabad and other districts of the state.

The decision is likely to be implemented starting January 1, 2025.

15 years or older vehicles

A vehicle is considered overage if it is 15 years or older.

According to a report published in TOI, such vehicles must be scrapped. The owner will face penalties if such vehicles are found on the road.

This exemption does not apply to 10,000 government vehicles.

17 lakh overage vehicles in Hyderabad

Praja Palana Scheme, Telangana Dec 28 to Jan 6

The Telangana Chief Minister unveiled the ‘Praja Palana’ logo and application form in the presence of his cabinet colleagues at the Dr. B.R. Ambedkar Telangana State Secretariat in Hyderabad on December 27, 2023.

The stage is set for the launch of Praja Palana, taking the government to the doorsteps of the people, on Thursday. The program has been conceived as people, especially those from remote and far-flung areas, are experiencing difficulties in meeting officials to represent their grievances and seek their redressal. The Telangana government has decided to reach out to the helpless and extend help to them through Praja Palana.

According to Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy, the government was not available to the people in the last 10 years, and the governance had not reached them. The hardships people faced in submitting their grievances could be seen from the huge number of applications received during the Praja Vani program, prompting the government to take governance to the people, thus avoiding the scope for difficulties in representing their problems.
