This young state has a rich cultural heritage and a vibrant modern ecosystem of economic and technological development. I wish that the people of Telangana march ahead on the path of progress and prosperity," Murmu said. Greeting the people of Telangana, PM Modi said that his government had undertaken many measures to boost their "ease of living".

Andhra Pradesh CM Chandrababu Naidu said that though Telugu states were different, Telugu people and their community was one.

"Will fight for state's welfare under KCR's leadership": BRS leader Madhusudhana Chary on Telangana Statehood Day

Hyderabad (Telangana) [India], June 2 (ANI): Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) leader S Madhusudhana Chary recalled the long struggle led by BRS chief K Chandrasekhar Rao for the formation of Telangana on the occasion of its statehood day. He said the BRS, under the leadership of K Chandrasekhar Rao, will continue to fight for the welfare of the people and hold the ruling party accountable for its unfulfilled promises. Speaking to ANI, Madhusudhana Chary said, 'The TRS, under the leadership of K Chandrasekhar Rao, fought for 14 long years to get Telangana statehood. KCR played a key role in pressuring the Centre and uniting all political parties, which finally led to the formation of Telangana on June 2, 2014. He became the first Chief Minister and made Telangana a model state with top rankings in per capita income, power usage, and development. But after we lost power in December 2023, the Congress government brought the state into a miserable condition. In my 40 years of politics, I have never seen such a bad government. They have failed to deliver even a single promise. We, under KCR's leadership, will fight for the state's welfare and demand that the Congress government fulfil its promises.' Earlier in the day, Prime Minister Narendra Modi extended greetings for Telangana Statehood Day. He noted the state's contribution to the nation and wished the people 'success and prosperity'. In a post on X, PM Modi said, 'Greetings to the wonderful people of Telangana on their Statehood Day. The state is known for making innumerable contributions to national progress.' The Prime Minister said that the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) government in the Centre has boosted 'Ease of Living' in the state. 'Over the last decade, the NDA Government has undertaken many measures to boost 'Ease of Living' for the people of the state. May the people of the state be blessed with success and prosperity,' PM Modi posted. (ANI)

Mallikarjun Kharge Missing From Congress' Goa Event Poster. BJP Takes Aim

Panaji: The Goa Congress has landed in a controversy after a poster displayed during the Statehood Day celebrations failed to feature the image of party national president Mallikarjun Kharge. The omission sparked a sharp reaction from the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), which accused Congress of 'disrespecting and sidelining' its Dalit leader. The banner, displayed during a Congress-organised event in Panaji on May 30 to mark Goa Statehood Day, prominently featured photos of Sonia Gandhi, Rahul Gandhi, state Congress president Amit Patkar, and Leader of Opposition Yuri Alemao -- but conspicuously left out Mr Kharge. Mr Kharge was originally scheduled to attend a public meeting in Navelim, South Goa, which was later cancelled. Taking to social media, the Goa BJP posted an image of the controversial banner on its official X handle, claiming the incident was a deliberate snub. Congress Humiliates Its Dalit President. Mallikarjun Kharge's photo deliberately left out from Congress's official Goa Statehood Day banner — a snub to the party's own national president? — BJP Goa (@BJP4Goa) May 31, 2025 'Congress Humiliates Its Dalit President. Mallikarjun Kharge's photo deliberately left out from Congress's official Goa Statehood Day banner - a snub to the party's own national president?' the post read. The BJP further alleged that the Congress had humiliated its Dalit president by excluding him from the visual representation. The development has resulted in a fresh wave of political friction in the state of Goa. The ruling party, BJP, is using it to question Congress' commitment to internal unity, its oft-repeated inclusivity line and representation. Political observers note that the incident may affect Congress' image, particularly among Dalit voters, if not addressed swiftly and sensitively. Meanwhile, Congress supporters argue that the BJP is exploiting a genuine mistake for political mileage. According to reports, some Congress leaders in Goa have admitted to this 'minor mistake' due to what they called oversight. As the issue continues to stir debate, Congress faces pressure to reaffirm its commitment to inclusivity and organisational unity, say political observers.
