Mr. Defected MLA: Your Admission is Sufficient Proof to Disqualify Him | Countercurrents (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Doesn’t the Speaker or the Leader of the House Know that Danam is Disqualified as an MLA? The Speaker of Telangana should have been convinced that the facts speak for themselves: The Telangana High Court noted that in Form-26 filed for the Lok Sabha election on April 23, 2024, Danam Nagender explicitly named the Indian National Congress as his party, and in Form-7A, his name appeared alongside the Congress party and its official ‘Hand’ election symbol.

It is difficult to believe that Telangana did not attain independence on 15th August 1947. Because the Hyderabad State was under the cruel rule of the Nizams.

The Democratic Imperative: Making Power Accountable | Countercurrents (opens the original)

As leaders, veteran journalists, and legal minds underscored at the recent National Conclave of the Federation of Press Clubs in Hyderabad, journalism cannot exist merely as a commercial enterprise or a megaphone for public relations. Its historical and constitutional mission—rooted in awakening public consciousness and inf
