Basically a freelance and independent journalist hails from Telangana of India. I would like to share my works through this blogspot with the rest of the world and refine myself in my future activities. Actively participating in the people's movement for a separate State of Telangana in the Indian sub-continent, is a life-time achievement for me. I am now writing books from these experiences as an activist. I hope you all will appreciate.

An independant journalist, worked with several language newspapers for over 25 years, besidesThe New Indian Express. Edited six books on various issues like coal miners and People of Telangana.

Played an active role in bringing out issues such as Stop Opencast Mining, brought to light the Anthargoam Starvation deaths, worked with the land-oustees of Ellampally irrigation project, oranised a big rally to Kotilingala from Hyderabad in an effort to save the First capital of Satavahana's. Played a key-role in organising "Colliery Kavathu" (macrh to mines) bringing the issues of coal-belt areas & coal miners of Singareni, which is the first of its kind in the country. Right now working at the helm of TJAC. Since I camped for full-five days at Manukota, I thought this "blog" could be a proper tool to share the experiences with the rest . Feel free to share your feeling too, only on Manukota in the light of Telangana people's struggle.
