Stage set for TDP 'Mahanadu' with focus on six formulas
TDP National President and Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister, N. Chandrababu Naidu, will deliver the inaugural address to set the tone of the deliberations for the party's annual conclave, the first after TDP returned to power in June last year along with its allies Jana Sena and BJP.
TDP General Secretary and state minister Nara Lokesh, who is the son of Chief Minister Naidu, will introduce six formulas and amendments to the rules and regulations, in line with expectations of the young generation.
The conclave will pass a six formula resolution to build the party for future challenges.
'The activist is the leader' will be the first formula to be unveiled with a focus on organisational structure and the importance of party workers.
The second formula is 'Yuva Galam' or the voice of the youth with the emphasis on welfare of the youth, investments, employment opportunities, decentralisation of development, focus on backward areas, technology in public administration and WhatsApp Governance.
Lokesh had undertaken a padyatra 'Yuva Galam' before last year's elections to put forward an agenda for the youth.
Under the third formula, the conclave will focus on global eminence of the Telugu community. The party will recall how its founder N.T. Rama Rao (NTR) was popular and introduced many reforms and how the state is moving on a progressive path under Naidu's regime.
The party will highlight great victories in its 40-year journey.
'Women power' will be the fourth formula to be discussed. It will highlight the programmes and schemes for welfare of women, their empowerment and secure law and order.
The fifth formula will be 'social justice and prosperity of the poor'. The party will highlight how it aims to building a poverty-free society through the recently-launched programme P-4. Housing, healthcare and education accessible to all are the targets set under Swarnandhra Vision-2047
Under the sixth formula 'support to farmers', the party will explain the measures taken for welfare of growers and development of the agriculture sector. These include using technology beneficial for farming, construction of irrigation projects at a rapid pace and revolutionary reforms in the power sector.
On the first day of the conclave, discussions will be held on organisational structure and future action plan besides basic principles of the party.
A photo exhibition and blood donation camps will be inaugurated on the first day and the party's flag will be hoisted to launch the conclave.
The proceedings will commence with the chanting of the 'Maa Telugu Talliki' song following which condolences will be offered in the memory of party leaders and activists who passed away.
After the general secretary's report, the president of the TDP State unit, Palla Srinivas Rao, will deliver the welcome address. Later, the treasurer will submit his report on revenue and expenditure. This will be followed by Chandrababu Naidu's inaugural address.
On the second day, rich tributes will be paid to party founder NTR on his birth anniversary. Discussions will be held on the draft resolutions on developmental and welfare programmes taken up by the TDP-led NDA Government.

Meet Tayfun Block-4: Game-changer hypersonic missile unveiled by Turkey; its capable of..., could raise tension for India due to...
(File) In a major concern for India, Turkey, which openly supported and armed Pakistan during the recent India-Pakistan conflict after Operation Sindoor, has made another giant leap in the advance weapons' space as it unveiled its first hypersonic missile, the Tayfun Block-4, the latest variant of its indigenously-developed Tayfun ballistic missile family. How powerful is the Tayfun Block-4 missile? Designed and developed by Turkish defense giant Roketsan, the Tayfun Block-4 is a hypersonic variant of Turkey's indigenously built longest-range Tayfun ballistic missile series. The Tayfun Block-4 measures 6.5 meters, weighs 2,300 kilograms and has a range of 800 kilometres, as per a report by Turkey Today. 'The Tayfun Block-4 is capable of long-range strikes, setting another record for the Turkish defence industry. Weighing over 7 tonnes, this new variant of the Tayfun, with its multi-purpose warhead, will be capable of destroying a range of strategic targets such as enemy air defence systems, command and control centres, military hangars and important military facilities from hundreds of kilometers away,' Roketsan said in a statement. What makes hypersonic missiles so lethal? As the name suggests, hypersonic missiles are capable of travelling at hypersonic speeds of Mach 5 and above (five times the speed of sound or around 6,100 kilometers per hour), making it extremely difficult for even the most advanced air defense systems to intercept them in time. The destruction caused by Iran's hypersonic missiles across major Israeli cities such as Tel Aviv and Haifa during the recent Israel-Iran war is a testimony to the penetrative capabilities of the hypersonic missiles which render even advanced air defenses like Arrow 3 and the Iron Dome useless in a battle scenario. Why Turkey's new missile is a concern for India? Turkey, along with China and Azerbaijan, was among the few countries that openly supported Pakistan during the recent India-Pakistan conflict. Turkey, which has strengthened its military ties with Pakistan in recent times, also armed the Pakistani forces with advanced military drones like the Bayraktar TB2, which were actively used against Indian installations during Operation Sindoor. Defense analysts believe Turkey's development of a hypersonic missile system could be a significant security threat to India as Ankara could provide the technology and the missiles to Pakistan. Notably, Pakistan had earlier approached its 'iron brother' China for hypersonic technology, but the request was denied.

Correct injustice done to Telugu netas, make Dattatreya VP: Revanth
1 2 Hyderabad: Chief minister A Revanth Reddy on Wednesday said the BJP-led NDA govt can "correct the grave injustice done to the Telugu leaders at the national level" by nominating BC leader from Telangana , Bandaru Dattatreya , for the vice-president's post. He, however, hastened to add that this was the demand from the people of Telangana and that the INDIA bloc's consensus candidate would be decided by the AICC leadership and other members. On my behalf, I will personally request the AICC to name Dattatreya. Modi should protect the self-respect of the Telugu people and appoint Dattatreya as the vice-president," Revanth claimed. "Telugu is the most spoken language in the country after Hindi, and the most spoken language in south India," he told reporters in New Delhi. "All these years, the BJP has conspired against the Telugu people and not allowed Telugu leadership to rise to key national positions. There was a discussion on making Venkaiah Naidu the President, but he was asked to vacate his official residence and sent back home. Unki ghar wapsi kar dee."

"Earlier, he was stripped of his Union ministership. This was given to G Kishan Reddy. Another BC leader, Bandi Sanjay, was removed from the post of BJP state president.

"The BJP-led NDA has consistently meted out injustice to the BC leaders from south India, especially Telangana. To make up for that injustice — '100 khoon maaf karne ke liye' (to pardon those 100 wrongs) — they should appoint Dattatreya as the next vice-president," he said.

Revanth Reddy bats for Bandaru Dattatreya, a Telugu OBC, for vice president post
Telangana Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy on Wednesday demanded former Union Minister and ex-Governor Bandaru Dattatreya, an OBC leader from Telangana, be made the Vice President of India. Reddy said the post should be given to Telangana as Telugu was the second-most spoken language in the country.(PTI) He said the post should be given to Telangana as Telugu was the second-most spoken language in the country, and justice to the native speakers must be done. Meanwhile, he termed as "unfortunate" the resignation of former vice president Jagdeep Dhankhar. "The next Vice President should be from Telangana. Telangana deserves its due. You cannot do so much injustice to the people of Telangana. Telugu is the second most spoken language in India after Hindi, and then comes Bengali. Injustice has been done to our people. "I have demanded that the NDA government appoint Bandaru Dattatreya as the next Vice President of India. If Dattatreya is made the vice president, then some of your sins will be forgiven," the Congress leader told reporters here. Dattatreya was the Haryana governor during 2019-2021. He was made the governor of Himachal Pradesh in July 2021 and vacated that post on July 21 this year. Reddy said he proposed Dattatreya's name because there is so much talk about OBCs these days, and Dattatreya, an OBC, was removed from the post of governor. He said Bandi Sanjay was also axed as the BJP president of Telangana, as he termed both these leaders the main face of Telugu OBCs. "They sent a person of Telugu-speaking person back home from Delhi (referring to former VP M Venkaiah Naidu). Then they removed Bandaru Dattatreya as governor and then removed Bandi Sanjay as Telangana BJP president," said Reddy, attacking the BJP-led Centre. Asked if the Congress would support Dattatreya's candidature, he said, "I will try and help Bandaru Dattatreya and I will also request my leadership to support him too, but the Congress leadership will take a call on it." Reddy also alleged that the country is in danger till the NDA government is in power, and it has to be removed.
