Retd employees demand immediate payment of dues
Hyderabad: The Telangana All Pensioners & Retired Persons Association (TAP&RPA) organised a Maha Dharna programme on Tuesday at Indira Park Dharna Chowk, demanding the resolution of issues faced by state government pensioners.
TGEJAC General Secretary Eluri Srinivasa Rao inaugurated the dharna, with State President Potula Narayana Reddy and General Secretary Palakurthi Krishnamurthy announcing plans to launch a large-scale movement across the state to address the concerns of employees, teachers, and pensioners. They mentioned that departmental notes had been sent to nine departments to resolve issues affecting 27 departments in the state. The speakers emphasised that if the problems of 1.3 million pensioners are not addressed, they will lose confidence and vote against the government.
Former MLC A Narsi Reddy criticized the Central government's orders that hinder the functioning of state governments, stating that such interference should cease. He urged the government to stop provoking emotions without resolving the people's problems. CITU leader V S Rao pointed out that the government is prioritising the interests of corporate entities and contractors over the welfare of employees, pensioners, and workers. He warned that if this policy continues, it may lead to this government being overthrown, similar to the previous administration.

Maha dharna tomorrow to oppose Op Kagar
Asifabad: TheCPI (ML) New Democracy District Secretary Md Chand Pasha and CPM District Secretariat Member Kota Srinivas called for a Maha Dharna to be held at Indira Park in Hyderabad on June 17 demanding an immediate stop to Operation Kagar. The leaders demanded government to hold peace talks with the Maoists. Posters related to the dharna were unveiled at Ambedkar Square in Asifabad district centre on Sunday. On this occasion, Pasha and Srinivas strongly opposed the killing of tribals and Maoists by Central Paramilitary Armed Forces along with the Saida Police in Dandakaranyam. 'More than 540 people have already been killed in the past year. This is in violation of the Constitution and laws. They are taking the law into their own hands by announcing a deadline of eliminating Naxalites from the country,' he said. He questioned why the Modi government, which is ready to hold peace talks with Pakistan, is not holding peace talks with the Maoists who are continuing their struggle despite having different political views. Both leaders called for a large number of people to participate in the Maha Dharna. Also present in the programme were CITU District President Jadhav Rajender, PDSU District General Secretary Jagajampula Tirupati, and others.

Book on history of policing in Rajasthan released at RPA
1 2 Jaipur: A book titled 'Police Itihas Ke Vatayan Se' (Police Through the Window of History), authored by Professor Dr Vikas Nautiyal, was released at Rajasthan Police Academy (RPA) Wednesday. The release was conducted by former BSF director-general ML Kumawat, RPA director S Sengathir, former IPS officer Hari Ram Meena, and historian Dr Kamal Nayan. Nautiyal said his aim was to build a bridge between the police establishment and academic discourse. The book traces the evolution of police from ancient times, and covers the colonial period in detail. It discusses the impact of the Police Act of 1861, the recommendations of the 1902 Police Commission, and various police manuals, on the princely states of Rajputana. Nautiyal said the book examins the role of police during colonial-era fairs, festivals, and civil unrest, alongside their positioning as a critical instrument of British control during India's national movement. Nautiyal noted that the book discusses two models of modern policing: one rooted in community-based practices, and the other shaped by colonial priorities. He emphasised the need to understand policing within its historical context. "We are not saying the British alone were responsible for shaping today's policing systems," he said.
