Hyderabad’s Eco-Friendly Market Returns Every Month with Mulam Santha-8 Nov-2025

Mulam Santha: Celebrating Sustainable Living and Local Traditions

Hyderabad: Every second Saturday, Hyderabad comes alive with Mulam Santha — a monthly community market promoting sustainability and traditional lifestyles. Organized by the CSR Memorial Foundation and Gram Bharati at Marri Krishna Hall, Tarnaka (10 a.m. – 7 p.m.), the fair brings together farmers, artisans, khadi weavers, and eco-entrepreneurs from across Telangana.

Rooted in the idea of conscious consumption, Mulam Santha connects rural producers directly with urban consumers, offering organic produce, handmade crafts, millet foods, khadi garments, and eco-friendly products. It’s not just a market — it’s a platform that empowers self-help groups, women entrepreneurs, and youth-led ventures.

Visitors can also enjoy workshops on natural farming, composting, and traditional crafts, along with organic food stalls serving millet snacks and herbal drinks. The fair’s earthy charm and community spirit make it a refreshing escape from city life.

Now a key part of Hyderabad’s green movement, Mulam Santha continues to grow each month — inspiring people to live sustainably and support local traditions. Entry is free; visitors are encouraged to carry reusable bags and choose eco-friendly products

Protest Against Proposed Thumkunta Municipality Dump Yard at Bommarasipet–Ponnal – November 6, 2025

For the past three years, residents and landowners in our region have been united in their struggle for fair development and sustainable growth. Now, a new and serious threat has emerged — the proposed shifting of the Thumkunta Municipality waste dump yard from Jawaharnagar to Bommarasipet/Ponnal (near the crusher area adjacent to our lands).

If this proposal is approved, it will drastically reduce the value of our lands, wiping out all the positive impact expected from upcoming infrastructure projects such as:

  • Metro Extension up to ORR
  • Elevated Corridor Project
  • Ongoing developments along the Outer Ring Road

These major projects were supposed to boost the region’s growth potential, but the dump yard plan could nullify all progress and cause serious environmental and health concerns for nearby villages.

To oppose this decision, our friends and farmers from Bommarasipet and Ponnal villages are organizing a protest today at 10:30 AM at the Collector’s Office. Their goal is to prevent approval of this harmful proposal.

We urge all affected landowners and residents to stand together and join the protest as equal stakeholders. This is our chance to show unity and protect the future of our area before it’s too late.

Let us gather in strength at the Collector’s Office at 10:30 AM and voice our objection to the proposed dump yard relocation.

Heated Argument Between Naveen Yadav And KTR Over Jubilee Hills By Election | Telangana Politics

A heated argument erupted between Congress candidate Naveen Yadav and BRS working president K.T. Rama Rao (KTR) during the Jubilee Hills by-election campaign in Telangana. KTR accused the Congress government of misusing its power through demolition drives under the “HYDRAA” initiative, claiming the ruling party was targeting the poor and using fear tactics to influence voters. In response, the BRS filed a complaint against Naveen Yadav, alleging intimidation and demanding his disqualification. The Congress, on the other hand, countered by accusing the BRS of spreading fake narratives and circulating misleading videos about Naveen Yadav to tarnish his image. The exchange highlighted growing tensions between both parties as the by-election intensified.

Surveys Paint Conflicting Pictures in Jubilee Hills Bypoll Battle — Hyderabad, November 4

Hyderabad: The high-stakes Jubilee Hills bypoll has turned into a contest not just for votes but for narrative dominance, as rival surveys paint sharply contrasting pictures of the electoral mood.

The political battlefield is divided between two surveys — the KK Survey, which indicates that the Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) is regaining lost ground, and the Lok Poll Survey, which gives the Congress a comfortable lead.

This duel of data has added a new dimension to the campaign, fueling morale within both camps while leaving voters guessing which way the wind is actually blowing.

With polling day fast approaching, the bypoll has evolved into a prestige contest for all major parties. Fiery speeches, social media offensives, and verbal duels among leaders have turned the Jubilee Hills election into a test of strength, strategy, and perception.

According to the latest KK Surveys and Strategies report, the BRS candidate is locked in a tight race but enjoys a slight edge, a finding that has visibly energized the party’s cadre. The pink party has seized on the survey results, flooding social media with posts celebrating the perceived momentum shift.

In contrast, the Lok Poll Survey offers a rosier picture for the ruling Congress, projecting a clear lead for the party’s candidate. Party insiders say the survey attributes the advantage to Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy’s popularity and the government’s recent welfare schemes in the constituency.

As the campaign enters its final stretch, both parties are doubling down on door-to-door outreach and targeted messaging, hoping to convert perception into votes. For now, Jubilee Hills remains a battleground not just of ballots — but of belief.

Mobile Phone Deposit Facility for Voters at Jubilee Hills Polling Stations on Nov 11

By Sunil Mungara

Hyderabad:
Voters in the Jubilee Hills Assembly constituency heading to the polls on November 11 will be able to safely deposit their mobile phones before entering polling stations. The Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) Election Wing is setting up secure mobile phone deposit centres outside all polling stations, in line with Election Commission of India (ECI) guidelines.

The facility aims to assist voters, particularly senior citizens and women, ensuring convenience and security on polling day.

A senior GHMC official deputed for the bypoll said that voters must switch off their mobile phones before entering the polling station and hand them over to volunteers stationed at the mobile phone deposit counters.

Voters will receive a token in exchange for their phone, which they can use to reclaim it after casting their vote and exiting the polling station.

The GHMC has assured that adequate staff and security measures will be in place to manage the process smoothly and prevent any inconvenience to the public.

The initiative is part of the civic body’s broader efforts to ensure a transparent, orderly, and voter-friendly polling experience in Jubilee Hills during the by-election.

Jubilee Hills by-election: Kamma community extends support to Congress

Hyderabad, Oct 28:
In a major boost to the ruling Congress party ahead of the upcoming Jubilee Hills Assembly by-election, members of the Kamma community have announced their full support to the party.

Leaders from the community, which holds a strong social and economic presence in areas like Ameerpet, Kukatpally, and Serilingampally, met Telangana Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy on Tuesday and conveyed their support, while also placing a few demands before the government.

During the meeting, the community leaders urged the CM to install a statue of legendary actor and former Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N. T. Rama Rao at Maitri Vanam in Ameerpet. They also appealed to the government to provide due representation to the community in nominated posts.

According to a press release from the Chief Minister’s Office, the Kamma community assured that the Congress candidate Naveen Yadav would win the Jubilee Hills by-election with a huge majority.

The by-election, necessitated by the demise of former BRS MLA Maganti Gopinath, is expected to be a high-stakes contest for the ruling Congress, which failed to win any seat in the Greater Hyderabad area in the 2023 Assembly elections.

While the Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) has fielded Maganti Gopinath’s wife as its candidate, the BJP has once again given its ticket to Lankala Deepak Reddy, who had contested unsuccessfully in 2023. Political analysts expect a triangular fight between the Congress, BRS, and BJP this time.

In the 2023 Assembly polls, Gopinath secured 80,549 votes, followed by Congress’ Mohd. Azharuddin with 64,212 votes, and BJP’s Deepak Reddy with over 25,000 votes. AIMIM’s candidate Rasheed Farazuddin finished fourth with 7,848 votes.

The bypoll outcome is seen as a litmus test for the Congress government, as it aims to strengthen its urban base in Hyderabad ahead of future elections.

Training held for poll officers ahead of Jubilee Hills by-election

Hyderabad, Oct 29
In preparation for the upcoming Jubilee Hills Assembly by-election, the Hyderabad District Election Officer (DEO) and GHMC Commissioner R V Karnan emphasised the crucial role of Presiding Officers (POs) and Assistant Presiding Officers (APOs) in ensuring a free, fair and transparent polling process.

Addressing officials at a training session held at G. Narayanamma Institute of Technology and Science, Shaikpet, Karnan said all polling staff must have a clear understanding of their duties and responsibilities and should discharge them with complete neutrality and integrity.

Nearly 500 officials attended the session conducted in two batches. The training included hands-on demonstrations on the use of Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs)—Ballot Units (BUs), Control Units (CUs), and VVPAT systems.

The DEO instructed that each polling station would be equipped with four BUs, one CU and one VVPAT, given that 59 candidates, including NOTA, are contesting in the by-poll. He urged officers to thoroughly study the Presiding Officer’s Handbook issued by the Election Commission of India (ECI) and prepare checklists for polling-day activities, including verification of materials, voter lists and machines.

Election Police Observer Om Prakash Tripathi and Expenditure Observer Sanjeev Kumar Lal inspected the training and advised officials to adhere strictly to ECI guidelines to maintain transparency and credibility in the electoral process.
