Maoists deny reports on Damodar's surrender, distance themselves from threat letter to Minister Seethakka
The CPI (Maoist) Telangana State Committee has distanced itself from a recent letter published in a section of the media, threatening Mulugu MLA and Panchayat Raj and Rural Development Minister Dansari Anasuya (Seethakka) in the name of their Telangana State Committee. The letter criticised Seethakka for allegedly neglecting tribal rights, but the party clarified that it had no connection with the letter, a statement issued on Saturday in the name of the party Telangana spokesperson Jagan said. The committee claimed that reports of Damodar's surrender or death have been repeatedly spread by the police. Such reports are a 'deliberate misinformation campaign' carried out by the police as part of a psychological warfare to confuse the revolutionary forces. The Maoists highlighted the contradiction between the Congress government's stance on Maoist issue. While the Congress government has declared the Maoist problem as a social and political issue that cannot be resolved through repression and is demanding that the Central government stop encounters, the police are harassing innocent tribals in Mulugu, Bhadradri-Kothagudem, and Asifabad districts by summoning them to police stations. The Maoist party urged the people to take note of this disparity.

Financial mess handiwork of previous govt: Seethakka
HYDERABAD: Panchayat Raj & Rural Development Minister Dansari Anasuya alias Seethakka on Tuesday lashed out at BRS working president KT Rama Rao for making unwarranted comments against Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy. Speaking to reporters after having lunch at the residence of a fine rice scheme beneficiary at Patigadda in Hyderabad, the minister dared BRS president and former chief minister K Chandrasekhar Rao to 'come to Assembly and show his power if he wants'. While accusing the BRS of failing to fulfil the promises it made to the people during its regime, she said that the present Congress government was implementing the superfine rice scheme though it was not mentioned its poll manifesto. 'Because of the loans taken by the previous BRS government, our government is facing many financial problems. Our government is paying Rs 6,000 crore every month towards the interest and principal for loans taken by the previous government,' she added.
