Telangana Formation Day 2025: Date, history and significance behind the day
Telangana Formation Day 2025: On June 2, the people of Telangana celebrate their formation day, a decade since India's youngest state was established.
Telangana was created as a separate state in response to a longstanding demand for a separate Telangana state that had been raised for decades, a resolution led by the Congress Working Committee.
On June 2, 2014, Telangana was formed out of the Indian state of Andhra Pradesh, following the approval of the Andhra Pradesh Reorganisation Bill in the Parliament in 2014.
After extensive discussion on the specifics of the state boundary and the choice of capital (for the new Andhra State), Hyderabad was chosen as the joint capital of both Andhra and Telangana for ten years, after which Andhra would have to shift its capital.
The Telangana Formation Day is an occasion to pay tribute to the hardships faced by the people of Telangana while celebrating their victory in carving a separate identity apart from Andhra Pradesh.
It also serves as a reminder of the resilience of its people in their pursuit to have a separate state for over half a century of struggle and sacrifice. In 2025, the state will celebrate its 11th anniversary on Monday, June 2.
As we observe Telangana Formation Day today, the CM of the state, Revanth Reddy, extended his greetings on X (formerly Twitter), stating,
'On the occasion of Telangana State Formation Day, Chief Minister Sri @revanth_anumula Garu conveyed his greetings to the people. He remembered the sacrifices of the martyrs who laid down their lives for the establishment of the state. He called on everyone to re-engage in the reconstruction of Telangana State to achieve the aspirations of the martyrs.'

Dixon, Florence see silver lining in Trump's tariffs
PARIS: They are a study in contrast: One is an electronics goods maker, the other a footwear manufacturer. One has its base in Chennai, the other up North. But, both are focusing on ramping up at breakneck speed, hoping to cash in on overseas players seeking to tap India, not just for its domestic market but also for exports, especially after Trump's tariffs. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now The other similarity is scale. Electronics goods supplier Dixon Technologies, which has been busy with tie-ups to manufacture phones, laptops and consumer durables, is seeing a huge uptick in export orders from the US as countries seek to reduce reliance on China. "Indian market is around $40 billion, the US has imports of around $80 billion. In the next few years, we see a $100 billion export opportunity in the US and EU," said Dixon Technologies chairman Sunil Vachani. If it is smartphones that have seen a massive surge in production, it will be laptops in the next few years as companies look to first meet the domestic demand before venturing into exports, he said. "We missed the opportunity during Trump 1, when Indian companies were not ready. But now we have built scale, we are designing our own products. We have a foot in the door, and we will be like Vietnam in a few years once the component ecosystem is also developed," Vachani added. In Chennai, Florence Shoe Company chairman Aqueel Panaruna, whose family was in the leather footwear business, is manufacturing a million pair of sports shoes for one of the top global brands. His company is also a joint venture partner with Hong Fu, the world's second largest sports shoes maker for the likes of Nike and Adidas, to set up a $300 millon plant that can produce 10 million pairs of shoes. While the new quality control norms on footwear has driven global majors to eye more production in India, the shift began soon after Covid, with who's who of sports shoes, from Nike, Adidas, Puma and New Balance, tying up with local players to meet global and domestic demand. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now For Florence, the challenge in recent years has been the growing dependence on the US, which now accounts for around 80% of its exports, compared to 25% a decade ago. Trump's tariffs have added a 10% additional burden, with shoes now attracting up to 30% customs duty. But Panaruna is not worried. He is in fact banking on the trade deals with the US, UK and EU offering possibilities for more sourcing from India. "If the Hong Fu experience is good, we may see some of the factories shift from Vietnam to India," he said. "With displays and camera modules to be produced in India, value addition in mobiles could rise from 17-18% to around 40% in the next two-three years, nearing China's level of 50-55%," Vachani said.

Joe Biden's Daughter Slams 'Untrue' Claims On Ex-US President's Health: 'Damn Disrespectful'
Last Updated: Ashely Biden captioned the post with a message: 'Too grateful to be angry about all the bulls**t." Ashley Biden, daughter of former US President Joe Biden, hit back at recent reports about her father's mental and physical health, calling the claims 'DAMN disrespectful and untrue." In an Instagram post, Ashley Biden posted a photo of herself with her parents, Joe and Jill Biden, at the beach. She captioned the post with a message: 'Too grateful to be angry about all the bulls**t," adding, 'This family's only coverup is a beach coverup." Ashley Biden's comments come amid speculation about the former president's health, particularly in the wake of books such as Original Sin. Rejecting the claims, Ashley Biden wrote, 'He aged, YES! As we all do! And the stress of the presidency accelerates. But he was always MORE than capable of doing the job. And a damn good one." Ashley Biden took aim at what she called 'recent noise from fake news" accusing some in the media of pushing false narratives for profit. She wrote, 'The noise is so DAMN disrespectful and untrue… created by those committed to perpetuating and profiting from some real BS. Get lost with your fake news and anonymous sources." Ashley also thanked the public for the outpouring of support following her father's recent prostate cancer diagnosis. Her comments follow a similar rebuke from Joe Biden's granddaughter Naomi Biden, who criticized Original Sin in a post on X (formerly Twitter), calling the book 'political fairy smut" written by 'irresponsible self-promoting journalists."
