Telangana govt. allocates 22,000 crore for Hyderabads growth in 2024-25
Interview | Most oppressed need to be empowered: Kishor Makwana
Several states, including Telangana, Andhra Pradesh and Haryana, have recently sub-classified Scheduled Caste (SC) categories to give targeted benefits to historically marginalised SC sub-groups. The move follows last years Supreme Court ruling on sub-classification of SCs and STs, which ignited a widespread debate on its political and social consequences. In an exclusive interview with Preetha Nair, Kishor Makwana, Chairman of the National Commission for Scheduled Castes (NCSC), shares his views on various SC community issues. Excerpts: The Telangana government recently conducted a caste survey and divided the SCs into three groups to ensure the effective distribution of welfare benefits, government schemes, and reservations. Do you support it? Telangana has followed the SC verdict on sub-classification and has done its bit. However, I believe it is essential that the last person, the most oppressed among Dalits, be prioritised and empowered. Several states, such as Haryana and Andhra Pradesh, are also going ahead with sub-classification. However, NCSC opposed the idea in the past. Can the states implement it, given the legal hurdles? The SC ruling empowers state governments to take a more nuanced approach by creating sub-categories within these groups. The Commission is committed to ensuring that every individual, especially those at the very bottom of the socio-economic ladder, has access to the resources, education, and opportunities needed to break free from the cycle of poverty and oppression. The Central government is yet to spell out its stand on the sub-categorisation of SC/STs. No comments. The SC has also proposed excluding the creamy layer among SC/STs from reservations. The Centre has opposed this. What is the Commissions view? Reservation is not meant to be a tool for economic empowerment alone; it is fundamentally about achieving social equality. Dr BR Ambedkar envisioned reservation as a means to address the social backwardness faced by the SCs and STs. In his view, affirmative action was intended to uplift communities oppressed and marginalised based on caste, allowing them to break free from the chains of social inequality. I agree that casteism still exists. However, things are slowly changing. Prime Minister Modi, in his policies, has expressed a commitment to fulfilling Ambedkars vision by protecting the rights of marginalised communities and improving their social status. Through various initiatives and the continued implementation of affirmative action policies, the Modi government seeks to align with Ambedkars ideal. Thus, the aim of reservation remains firmly rooted in addressing social backwardness and not just economic disparities. Certain sub-groups within the larger SC category face systemic discrimination and economic hardships. Empowering the most marginalised requires targeted policies that go beyond mere categorisation. I agree that the issue needs more discussion. Everyone wants to prioritise the empowerment of the most marginalised individuals and the last person to be uplifted. Only when the most vulnerable individuals are lifted can true progress and equality be achieved for all. Opposition parties favour a nationwide caste census to acquire empirical data on social issues. They cite the Telangana sub-categorisation, which has been done based on empirical data. The Congress party was in power for 70 years. Why did they wake up now? They should have conducted a caste census during their tenure. The reason is that the Congress didnt want the Dalits to get their rights. Many also argue that sub-classification will fragment the SC/ST community and exacerbate existing social tensions. The argument is not correct. I have met representations from several Dalit groups and other stakeholders. Everyone wants the most marginalised groups to be empowered, ensuring that even those often overlooked and excluded from mainstream society can thrive. Should Dalit Muslims and Dalit Christians be given SC status? The Commission is against providing the same benefits of reservation to Dalits converting to other religions. That is against the spirit of the Indian Constitution and Dr Ambedkars vision. For him, the caste system, which is deeply embedded in Hindu society, was the primary source of the oppression that Dalits faced. Dalit converts, who leave Hinduism due to its perceived caste-based discrimination, may be contradictory in demanding reservation while rejecting the religion that originally assigned them to these oppressed categories.

Jharkhand to conduct caste census in next financial year: Minister Deepak Birua
RANCHI: Transport, Revenue, and Land Reforms Minister Deepak Birua confirmed that the state government plans to conduct a caste-based survey in the next financial year. Birua was responding to a question raised by Congress MLA Pradip Yadav during the ongoing Budget session of the Jharkhand Assembly on Monday. With this, Jharkhand will be the third State in the country to conduct caste census after Bihar and Andhra Pradesh. Birua Assured that the Personnel department has been appointed as the nodal agency for the survey. Birua emphasized the governments commitment to the survey, revealing that the decision was made in February of the previous year. The Minister also stated that efforts would be made to carry out the survey during the upcoming fiscal year, following a similar approach used in Telangana and Bihar, further adding that the Personnel department had issued a notice on March 4 to hire an agency that would assess the required workforce, task levels, and financial aspects of the exercise. Birua also mentioned that he had been in discussions with several agencies, though the process would take some time. With only a few days left in the current financial year, the minister assured that the survey would be conducted promptly in the next fiscal year. Meanwhile, MLA Pradip Yadav also requested the government to include a Sarna religious code in the survey to account for the population of Sarna followers. Notably, ahead of the Lok Sabha polls, the then Chief Minister Champai Soren had given his approval for the caste census in Jharkhand. After the caste census was conducted in Bihar, many parties started demanding the same in Jharkhand. Notably, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi had also promised caste census during his Nyay Yatra in Jharkhand. The previous government led by former CM Hemant Soren also wanted to conduct a caste census in the State, but it could not make a decision that which department would do the census. As per the rule book, the census is allotted to the Land and Revenue and Land Reforms Department, but the work of caste-based census was not allotted to any department in the executive rules. Champai Soren government, however, succeeded in resolving the issue and gave his approval for conducting the survey by Personnel Department which is to prepare a proposal regarding the caste census.

Delimitation row: Opposition enacting drama for political gains, says Minister Kishan
HYDERABAD: Union Coal & Mines Minister G Kishan Reddy has alleged that the Congress is staging dramas on the delimitation issue by putting Tamil Nadu Chief Minister MK Stalin at the forefront, with the BRS partnering with them. He urged the people to reject the propaganda being spread by family-run parties. Speaking to reporters in Hyderabad on Sunday, the BJP state president further alleged that the Congress and BRS were working together against the Union government and the saffron party. Kishan claimed that these parties, along with the DMK, were trying to spread disinformation against the BJP to gain political advantage. He added that, with elections in Tamil Nadu approaching next year, the DMK is attempting to divert public attention from its alleged misrule and misdeeds. As the BJP strengthens its presence in southern states, all these parties are hatching conspiracies, he alleged, asserting that citizens of the southern states are ready to support the BJP. The Union minister advised Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy to focus on fulfilling the promises made by the Congress in the run-up to the Assembly elections rather than spreading falsehoods about the Union government with respect to delimitation. So far, the Centre has not taken any decision on delimitation. Before the process begins, a census must be conducted. After that, the Union government will seek opinions from stakeholders. State governments also play a key role in the delimitation process. The Union government will ensure that no injustice is done to any state in delimitation, Kishan said, asserting that Telangana will not face any injustice in the process.
Centre should consult states before delimitation: K Keshava Rao
HYDERABAD: Advisor to the government K Keshava Rao has demanded that the Union government proceed with delimitation only after consulting state governments. Speaking to reporters on Sunday, the Congress leader said that many states, particularly those in the south, are concerned that they will lose their due representation in Parliament. But, he also expressed hope that representation from southern states would increase in Parliament. He stressed the need for political unity on the issue of delimitation. This is not just about the number of seats; it is about ensuring fair representation for all states in Parliament, he said. Keshava Rao alleged that the BJP-led Union government was trying to increase the number of seats in states where the party is strong while neglecting southern states. While the Union government is proposing seat increases in states like Assam and Jammu & Kashmir, it is ignoring the concerns of southern states, he added. He questioned BJP leaders about their alleged silence regarding the potential loss of representation for the southern states and accused Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Union Home Minister Amit Shah of completely disregarding federalism. Due to the policies being pursued by the Union government, many states are losing their rightful share and constitutional rights, he said.

Legal action, education must go hand-in-hand to bring change
THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: Dansari Anasuya, the Telangana minister for panchayat raj and rural development, rural water supply, and women and child welfare, was in Thiruvananthapuram to attend the Dalit Progress Conclave. In an interaction with TNIE, she discusses the struggles of marginalised groups and the need for policy changes. The three-time MLA from Mulugu, fondly called Seethakka, also shares her vision for a more inclusive and empowered future. Excerpts How do you see caste discrimination evolving in India? Is it changing? Casteism has existed for centuries. The mindset of our people has been shaped to believe in a hierarchy some are seen as upper caste while others are considered lower caste. Many believe that lower caste people dont deserve equal opportunities. This idea of dominance is ingrained deeply in society. Discrimination exists between people within the same society. But in reality, we are all equal. However, our mindsets are conditioned to think otherwise. Do you think the current government policies are helping dalits and marginalised communities? We do have the SC/ST Atrocities Act, but it is not being implemented effectively. Many who insult or mistreat dalits still go unpunished due to political and social influences. Upper caste individuals who commit caste-based violence or discrimination often escape accountability. Education is important. We must teach children at home and in classrooms that all people are equal. Stronger enforcement of laws is needed. Perpetrators must be punished, and at the same time, we must create awareness through education. Both legal action and education must go hand in hand to bring real change. Dalit leaders hold positions in politics, but do you think their voices are truly heard? Thats the issue. Even when dalit leaders attain positions of power, they continue to face disrespect. In Telangana, for example, a minister recently made a derogatory remark about the Speaker who comes from a marginalised community. Such remarks, especially when made in legislative assemblies, show how deep-seated caste discrimination still is. When a dalit person holds a high office, there is often an attempt to undermine them. Upper caste people assume they alone have the right to power and governance. This mindset has existed for centuries and is now being reinforced in political spaces. Even recently, I was criticised for living in a government-provided official bungalow. The comment was not about the house itself. It was about the belief that only upper caste individuals have the right to such privileges. Despite attempts to educate students on caste issues, why do we still see resentment towards reservation policies? In the past, caste-based suppression was so strong that dalits and other marginalised communities were denied basic education. Today, students sit together in classrooms, but casteism persists. There is a growing trend of discrimination based on caste and religion, which is being fuelled by political interests. Some parties deliberately create divisions for electoral gains. Political entities are using communal and caste-based divides to gain votes, which is dangerous for the future. Dalit and tribal women face double discrimination, in terms of both gender and caste. How can they be uplifted? Education is the most important tool for upliftment. However, marginalised communities still struggle to access quality education. Schools in villages and tribal areas lack resources, while urban private institutions offer better facilities, including computer education and communication training. This disparity in education creates an uneven playing field. While upper caste students gain global knowledge and opportunities, many from dalit and tribal backgrounds struggle with basic literacy. Equal opportunities in education must be ensured, regardless of caste or geography. Only then can we bridge the gap.

Harish Rao urges Telangana government to aid farmers hit by unseasonal rains
SIDDIPET : Former minister T Harish Rao demanded that the government help the farmers whose crops were damaged due to unseasonal rains in the state. He visited Lakshidevipally village in Narayanraopet mandal on Sunday and examined the damaged crops. Alleging that the Congress government cheated the farmers in the name of `2 lakh loan waiver extension, the BRS leader said, Former CM K Chandrasekhar Rao provided aid to farmers under Rythu Bandhu. Had this (Congress) government released Rythu Bandhu, the farmers would not have suffered like this. He added that the government had yet to release the aid for Kharif season and added that farmers had not received the crop insurance. Harish accused CM A Revanth Reddy of speaking lies about loan waiver in the Assembly. At present, there is no drought at all. The crops are drying due to the governments negligence, he alleged, requesting the government to send agriculture officers to the field to assess the total crop loss.
100-day TB Mukt Abhiyan concludes in Telangana, campaign highlights progress, gaps
HYDERABAD: The 100-day TB Mukt Abhiyan, launched in the state on December 7 as part of the National TB Elimination Programme (NTEP) under the National Health Mission (NHM) by the Centre, concluded on March 21. It was launched in nine districtsAdilabad, Bhadradri Kothagudem, Karimnagar, Mahbubnagar, Medak, Nagarkurnool, Peddapalli, Suryapet and Wanaparthy. According to the National TB Prevalence Survey, Telangana has a burden of 296 TB cases per lakh population. The nine districts were identified based on the national criteria of a high notification rate (200 per lakh population), a mortality rate above 3.6% and a prevalence above 400 per lakh population. A deeper analysis of TB Mukt Abhiyan statistics in the state indicates that although the initiative achieved tangible success in many areas, there is still a long way to go in eliminating the disease. According to the official report, the state has recorded 17,142 TB cases from January 1 2024 to March 21, out of which more than 4,600 cases were recorded during the 100-day campaign. The campaign was conducted by identifying and testing high-risk populations using 26 mobile TB testing vehicles, digital X-ray machines, and CBNAAT machines. During the campaign, 17,01,433 vulnerable individuals were screened, with the highest number in Adilabad, where 5,04,481 people were screened. As many as 7,253 individuals were tested with microscopy tests, whereas 68,208 people were tested through NAAT. In X-ray screening, the campaign achieved only 52% of the target, as only 73,341 out of 1,41,061 enrolled individuals were screened. According to official data, out of 16,534 beneficiaries of the Nikshay Poshan Yojana (NPY) Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT), 12,064 beneficiaries, i.e., 73%, received the full payment, and 13,743, or 83%, received at least one benefit. The campaign also lagged behind in the distribution of poshan kits to TB patients. The distribution was particularly poor in Karimnagar, where not even a single patient out of 363 who had consented received the kit, whereas in Medak, only one out of 133 patients received the kit. The overall state figure stood at 61%. Giving an overview of the campaign, Dr A Rajesham, joint director of the state TB Elimination Programme, told TNIE, The outreach of the campaign was extensive and we were able to reach remote and underserved areas to screen the population. We also screened a large number of vulnerable individuals through X-ray, which led to the detection of new TB cases. There has been tangible progress in public awareness, as all administrative forces joined hands to raise awareness. He added, Out of nine districts, six district administrations facilitated X-ray machines, which helped speed up the screening process. The state also moved from conventional microscopy to molecular diagnosis and 62 TRUNAAT and two CBNAAT machines were procured during the campaign. However, the official agreed that there was a need to expand the programme to other parts of the state and to collate comprehensive data based on various demographic characteristics such as gender, age, and occupation to gain deeper insight into the TB scenario. In July 2024, the Swastha Nagaram project, a model for TB-free municipalities, was launched in the state in the municipal corporations of Peerzadiguda, Boduppal and Pocharam, in Medchal Malkajgiri district. Talks are underway to extend the project to other urban areas.
Telangana tunnel collapse: Rescue operations continue as officials unable to locate trapped workers
HYDERABAD: Even after 30 days, officials remain unable to locate the seven workers trapped inside the Srisailam Left Bank Canal (SLBC) tunnel. A total of eight workers were trapped after a slab of the tunnel collapsed on February 22. Rescue operations have been continuing in full swing without any breaks. On Sunday, officials intensified efforts to trace the remaining workers. The body of tunnel boring machine operator Gurpreet Singh was recovered on March 9. Since then, rescue operations have continued with increased vigour to locate the other seven persons. Nagarkurnool District Collector B Santosh stated that dewatering and digging operations at D1 and D2 locations were ongoing without pause. Officials continue digging at spots identified by the sniffer dogs. In hazardous areas near the tunnel boring machine, robotic technology is being deployed for safety reasons. The authorities remain hopeful of making progress in the coming days. Multiple agencies, including NDRF, SDRF, SCCL, Anvi Robotics and other teams are actively engaged in the rescue operations.
Woman jumps off moving train to escape rape attempt near Hyderabad, suffers serious injuries
HYDERABAD: A 23-year-old woman jumped from a moving train after a 25-year-old man allegedly attempted to rape her, resulting in severe bleeding injuries. The incident occurred on March 22, Saturday, at approximately 8:15 pm near Kompally. Due to the severity of her injuries, she filed a complaint with the Government Railway Police (GRP) the following day. According to the GRP, the victim is a private employee in Hyderabad and a native of Ananthapur District in Andhra Pradesh . She stated that on March 22, at 3 pm, she traveled from Medchal to Secunderabad to repair her mobile phone display. After completing the repair, she went to Secunderabad Railway Station, purchased a general ticket to Medchal, and boarded a MMTS train in the ladies' coach at 7:15 pm. The victim reported the police that during the journey, at around 8:15 pm, two female passengers exited the train at Alwal Railway Station. The victim alleged that an unknown male, approximately 25 years old, thin, and dark-skinned, approached her and demanded sexual favors. Despite her refusal, he attempted to force himself on her. To escape, she jumped from the moving train, sustaining severe bleeding injuries to her head, chin, right hand, and waist. Passersby called an ambulance, and she was taken to Gandhi Hospital, Secunderabad for treatment. The victim informed the police that she would be able to identify the assailant if she saw him again. This case is reminiscent of Soumya murder case in Kerala wherein a 23-year-old saleswoman Soumya was raped and murdered by a habitual offender Govindasamy aboard the Ernakulam-Shoranur train on February 1, 2011. Similarly, a 36-year-old pregnant woman was pushed out of a moving train on February 6, 2025 by a history-sheeter when she resisted an attempt to sexually assault her. She later suffered miscarriage.
34 arrested for black market sale of SRH vs RR IPL tickets
HYDERABAD: The Special Operations Teams (SOT) of Malkajgiri have arrested 34 individuals over the past three days for illegally selling Indian Premier League (IPL) tickets for the Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) vs Rajasthan Royals (RR) match on the black market. According to Rachakonda police, the operation was initiated following a tip-off. During the crackdown, they seized a total of 138 tickets being sold at inflated prices. Since only four tickets can be purchased per email ID online, these individuals exploited the system by buying tickets online and subsequently attempting to sell them illegally at higher rates, an official told TNIE. The investigation revealed that the original ticket prices for the stadium ranged from Rs 750 to Rs 2,750. However, the accused attempted to profit by selling these tickets at double the rates. Notably, tickets priced at Rs 8,000 were also available, but the accused did not attempt to sell those. Authorities reported that two persons were apprehended on March 21, 14 on March 22, and another 18 on March 18. The accused included students, unemployed, and working professionals.
Andhra Pradesh's Nallamala echoes with chants of Namah Shivaya
KURNOOL: Thousands of pilgrims from Karnataka and parts of Maharashtra are trekking hundreds of kilometres on foot to reach Srisailam, fulfilling their vow ahead of the five-day Ugadi Mahotsavams from March 27 to 31. A large number of devotees, particularly from Karnataka, are traversing the dense Nallamala forest to seek the darshan of Lord Mallikarjuna Swamy and Goddess Bhramaramba Devi. While Maha Shivaratri is a major festival for devotees from Andhra Pradesh and Telangana, pilgrims from Karnataka celebrate Ugadi at Srisailam, considering Mallikarjuna Swamy as their son-in-law and Bhramaramba Devi as their daughter. Every year, thousands of devotees from Karnataka travel in groups of 50 to 100, covering 350 to 400 km on foot over seven to ten days. These pilgrims offer tamarind, kumkum, sarees, mangalsutras, and flowers to Goddess Bhramaramba Devi. Many also carry Nandi Kavallu (called Kambi in Kannada) and perform daily poojas. A significant ritual is the Agnikunda Pravesam, where a group of Kannada devotees, known as Ghanacharis, walk over burning embers and undergo ritualistic body piercings. Temple authorities have arranged temporary shelters, sheds, and water facilities for the expected 10 lakh devotees, with special focus on Kannada pilgrims arriving on foot, said temple executive officer M Srinivasa Rao.
Change in public mindset must for Dalits social progress: Governor Rajendra Arlekar
THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: The countrys biggest failure even after eight decades of independence is that no one has taken the progress of dalits and backward communities seriously, Governor Rajendra Arlekar said on Sunday. He was inaugurating the one-day Dalit Progress Conclave in Thiruvananthapuram, organised as part of the 15th anniversary celebrations of Ramesh Chennithalas Gandhigramam project. Social progress can only be achieved if the mindset of the people changes. It is because this change has not occurred that the social progress of dalit communities in the country still remains distant. B R Ambedkar was one of the greatest visionaries the country has ever seen. However, his birth anniversary is celebrated only by dalit communities in India. This needs to change. Every Indian should celebrate it, Arlekar said. Presiding over the function, Chennithala pointed out that landlessness is the biggest issue faced by dalit and tribal communities. He said plantations whose lease periods have expired should be reclaimed and distributed to the landless. Over the past 15 years, the Gandhigramam activists have sought to understand the issues faced by dalit colonies by spending every New Year among these communities. The Dalit Conclave is a continuation of this initiative. The opinions emerging from this session will be submitted to the state and Union governments for further action, he said. In his keynote address, Leader of Opposition V D Satheesan said, with the introduction of KIIFB projects, dalit and tribal communities lost crores of rupees from their allocated funds. He claimed the states dalit and tribal communities have been the biggest victims of the KIIFB initiative implemented by the Left government. He further alleged that by cutting down on allocations, crores of rupees meant for the uplift of these communities were lost. He stressed on the need for a new Kerala model that integrates dalit and tribal communities into the mainstream. Prakash Ambedkar, dalit movement leader and B R Ambedkars grandson, said dalits in India must be freed from mental enslavement. He insisted that funds allocated for dalit development should not be diverted to other purposes and called for a special banking system to support dalit entrepreneurship, suggesting that 95% of loans should be provided with only 5% security. Chidambaram MP Thirumavalavan emphasised that the term dalit is a unifying identity for the oppressed and should not be viewed as derogatory. Such a term is necessary to represent all marginalised communities collectively, he said. Highlighting the historical atrocities faced by dalit and tribal communities, Telangana minister Dansari Anasuya said they had survived these challenges through unity and resilience. The event also honoured Mavelikkara MP Kodikunnil Suresh who has been elected to Parliament eight times and Padma Shri awardee Lakshmikutti Amma. Gujarat legislator Jignesh Mevani, J Sudhakaran and M R Thampan also addressed the gathering.
Rising road mishaps in Hyderabad claim multiple lives; highlight traffic violations
HYDERABAD: TM Nandeeswara Babji had just received his new uniform from the tailor, purchased new shoes and was all set to join as an additional SP. The newly promoted cop was on his morning walk in Hayathnagar on Saturday. Around 4.40 am, he was mowed by a speeding APSRTC bus. Our happiness that he got a promotion turned out to be short-lived, Babjis family members lamented. Rachakonda IT cell ACP Narender Goud had worked with Babji in TRANSCO Vigilance and known him for over 15 years. Speaking to TNIE, Narender said, Babji was soft-spoken. He just did his duty and had no issues with other officers. I was heartbroken when I heard about his death at 5.30 am on Saturday. I had just called him two days ago and greeted him when he got promoted. His is not the only life that was snuffed out on the roads of Hyderabad on Saturday. On the same day, Prabhavathi Chathriya, a Class 10 student was returning home on a bike driven by her 21-year-old elder brother after writing her SSC exam. The bike was hit by a bus on Gachibowli around 1 pm. She died on the spot. Later on Saturday, around midnight, two cars collided with each other on the Outer Ring Road near Exit 18a. One person was killed and at least two others suffered serious injuries. Speeding is the likely cause, say police. These are not isolated incidents. Four to five precious lives are lost in road accidents each day in the Hyderabad, Rachakonda and Cyberabad police commissionerate limits, shows data from 2023 and 2024. Death on the roads due to overspeeding, drunken driving, wrong-side driving and other traffic violations has become part of everyday life in the city. The state has failed to implement the Motor Vehicles (Amendment) Act, 2019, which imposes heftier fines on traffic violators. When TNIE asked Hyderabad Joint CP (Traffic) Joel Davis if Telangana is planning to at least implement it now, he just reiterated that the state has not adopted the amended Act till now. Traffic expert and founder of the Indian Federation of Road Safety, Vinod K Kanumula, told TNIE that the government should implement the amended Act soon. When people do not listen, the government should be strict. If fines are heavy, people would think twice about violating rules. But governments are scared of people and worry about losing their votes. Not just Telangana, many states have not been implementing the amended Act. Interestingly, some states have even reduced the fines. Not just the developed countries, even Brazil, a developing country like us, imposes heavy fines and has strict punishment for traffic violations. Government alone cannot be blamed for mishaps It may be recalled that the Telangana government, in December 2023, even offered up to 90% discounts on traffic challans for violators. A person working with an NGO and coordinating with the police on regulating traffic in the city said that peoples representatives have the responsibility to prevent the destruction of families on the roads. S Kiran Kumar, managing trustee of the Synergy India Foundation, an NGO working for the safety of the people, said that hundreds approach the transport department for licences daily, and most of them receive them without being adequately educated about traffic rules and signals. If we ask drivers with licences about traffic rules and signals, how many of them would be able to answer correctly? Kumar questioned. Is it the drivers fault or the departments fault for issuing licences to ineligible individuals? But the government alone cannot be blamed, pointed out Kanumula. The blame lies equally on the people as they drive the wrong way, dont wear helmets, drink and drive, and so on. They know that it is wrong but think that nothing is going to happen to them. That is one of the main reasons for the deaths on the roads, he said. He turned nostalgic and recalled that back in the 1970s, there was a time when there was lane discipline in Hyderabad. Four-wheelers used one lane, RTC buses another, and so on. Now any vehicle can go anywhere on the roads, he lamented.
