Disgraceful; Utterly Offensive
(Amaravati on Sakshi TV – June 10, 2025)
Dr T H Chowdary*
Are political parties, their leaders and their supporters enemies of one another’s? Or are they rivals to excel other in the service of people in the country? Are journalists and anchors of TV channels partisans, using their talents and information media to denigrate, slander and propagate falsehoods undertaken by leaders of parties and governments they dislike.
2. These questions arise when we see and hear the foul words uttered by a journalist and his encouraging and appreciating anchor person on Sakshi TV channel owned by an erstwhile Chief Minister (his family) of Andhra Pradesh.
3. This duo of a journalist and the anchor person ( by the way he belongs to my Samajika vargam) of Sakshi TV ravelled in calling Amaravathi, AP’s capital whose construction has been resumed by AP’s triparty -alliance government, an area of abundant prostitutes !
4. This very Amaravathi was accepted and spoken of as one of the capitals for distributed governance of AP by the party these worthies adore and serve. It was from this place that the party they propagate for, made laws in the legislative building there during 2019-’24. Did the prostitutes prosper there then?
5. Dislike of and hatred for Sri Chandrababu Naidu and his TDP has driven these people to denigrate Amaravati. It is an insult to and crime against the thousands of farmers and their families who made over their fertile farms to build a magnificent capital for their state. What vileness these “journalists” are driven by intolerance and hatred. The curse of millions of Telugu people will mete out just punishment to the two for the crime of slander.
6. In pure literature Amaravati was the capital of Indra, Lord of Devas. In historic times, Buddhists established Universities. Nagarjuna, the great Buddhist scholar taught here. Such had been the fame of this area. To call it a place of vesyas, prostitutes is sacrilege.
7. Sri Krishnam Raju from the description of the several titles he held, appears to be a charlatan.
8. The duo Sri Krishnam Raju & Kommineni are drawing the just ire of not only the women and farmers of the capital region of AP but millions of Telugu people. Now the wheels of justice are moving by the arrest of the duo. Let us hope that grind they may slowly, they will do so fine.
9. Lastly, I recall the words of minister of UK in the House of Commons (Parliament) when accused of corruption. He warned the accuser, “if you tell lies about us , we will tell the truth about you”.
