Million March : Telanganites create history !

Telanganites have today shown the real spirit and desire for the state. They have gone extremes to make their point loud and clear. Women also took active part in the event and attended in large numbers. Nothing stopped them from reaching Tank bund. Arrests, barricades, barbed wires, nothing could stop them. By 3 p.m., more than 1 lakh people gathered at Tank bund, over a lakh arrested, and a million more were stopped from reaching hyderabad.

Andhra media had a good time portraying the event as failure in the morning but, were stunned at the number of people that came to Tankbund by afternoon. At one point they even aired news that it is not possible for even a single person to reach Tank Bund.

Telanganites have created history. Nothing like this has happened before.

They have shown to the world that Telangana is a people’s desire. The March has been very peaceful. More than the Million March, it was the government that caused inconvenience to the people.

Most of the pro-Telangana leadership has been placed under preventive arrest. About 120 check posts have been set up all around and in the city to stop the vehicles carrying the Telangana activists.

KCR, Harish Rao, KTR, Vinay Bhaskar, Ravinder Reddy and a number of other TRS leaders joined the March. Gaddhar, Kavitha, BJP leaders Bandaru Dattatreya and Kishan Reddy also participated in the event.
Congress MPs Kesava Rao and Madhu Yakshi were the only congress leaders that made it to Tank Bund but were jostled by the protesters asking them to resign.

People were seen singing songs, doing bathukamma dances, and participating in dhoom dham all over Tank bund.

Million March has also made it to headlines on all national channels. It has been more successful than expected.

A million thanks to all.
