Today’s varsity exams postponed

MLAs of the Telangana Rashtra Samiti (TRS) blocked the Assembly gates on Monday and insisted that they would not allow “Telangana traitors”, the Seema-Andhra MLAs, to enter the House. “In the past two days, two youths have committed suicide for Telangana. How many should die for Telangana? Why is the Centre playing with the lives of the people of Telangana?” Independent MLA Dr Nagam Janardhan Reddy asked.

Mr Etela Rajender and other TRS MLAs demanded a T-resolution in the Assembly. TRS MLAs stopped Telugu Desam MLAs, Mr Dulipala Narendra and Mr Devineni Umamaheswara Rao, from entering the Assembly. The agitators, however, allowed CPI and BJP MLAs to enter. After the dharna, the TRS MLAs too entered the House. TRS floor leader Mr Etela Rajender was furious over the government’s failure to pay homage to the youths in the Assembly and moving a resolution seeking separate Telangana, said, “Will Seema-Andhra leaders remain silent if a youth had committed suicide in their region? Why this bias towards Telangana people?” he asked.

Meanwhile, the SSC Board informed that the exams scheduled on Tuesday would be held as usual as the T-organisation had announced that the exams and APSRTC buses would be exempted from the bandh for the convenience of students. Exams for First Language paper-II (group-A), First Language paper-II (composite course) and OSSC Main language paper (Sanskrit, Arabic, Persian) are scheduled on Tuesday.

However, all examinations of the Osmania University, Mahatma Gandhi University, Nalgonda and Palamuru University, Mahbubnagar that were scheduled for Tuesday have been postponed. Fresh dates will be announced later.

I want to begin with a little story that was told to me by a leading executive at Aptech. He was exercising in a gym with a lot of younger people.

Shekhar Kapur’s Bandit Queen didn’t make the cut. Neither did Shaji Karun’s Piravi, which bagged 31 international awards.
