From the epics: Bhagavad-Gita: Yesterday we had discussed about Chapter Four, Jnana Yoga that deals with, 'Approaching the Ultimate Truth.' And do you know what ascetic Ramanuja said, 'Bhagavad-Gita reveals the goal of the all the Vedic scriptures.'

Today Chapter Five known as 'Karma Vairagya Yoga'. This chapter deals with, 'Action and Renunciation.' The Lord Krishna tells his disciple Arjuna, amidst Kurukshetra (war) that actions must be rendered on judicial judgments, were relationships and prejudice must not surface. He also enlightens that those who perform actions after leaving both these issues are blessed with success and inturn reach salvation.

Getting back to our concrete jungles for our regular news round up:

Megastar to political Chanukya...saga continues

'Star....Star....Mega...star..Star....'

This is the famous starting lyric of an old Megastar film. If it is rewritten today then it will be, 'Star....Star....Mega...star..Star.... Political.. Star.. Star...' True after a considerable debacle in the 2009 general elections many thought that it was the end of the political roads to the actor turned politician Chiranjeevi. Inspite of huge fan base he failed to garner Assembly strengths to crown self as the Chief Minister. This was considered as a major setback for his political aspirations and then rose the mature politician in Chiru (as he is fondly recalled by fans). Yes if you remember the media interview he gave to a prominent channel after merging his Praja Rajyam Party (PRP) with the Congress.

The senior journalist questioned his motive behind the merger. And pop, came the reply, 'to work better,' by the star. Then he added, 'if I could fight for many causes for the betterment of my people, while staying out of the ruling party' he pause and continued, 'my chances are better when I stay with the ruling party.' Initially, people thought he was an opportunist while merging the party. They went on to say that Chiru was benefited in the merger with power. But the political Chanukya proved his critics wrong and stated that not only he, but even Congress was benefited in the deal.

How do you think Congress was benefited: The Byelections for the 13 constituencies in the recent past, saw the results, inspite of a sympathy wave sweeping the Congress contestants off their seats. The sole two seats that the Congress garnered where those of Chiru's trusted lieutenants in Narsapur and Ramachandrapuram. Despite the sympathy wave, Chiru's wave was riding higher. Critics restricted their comments and some even went to say that in 2014 general elections, Congress might have a grand say if Chiru's role is well defined. Well this is not a political column and we shall not speculate much on these lines.

On the contrary what makes Chiru what he is today. From Siva Sankara Vara Prasad the journey to Rajya Sabha was surely not just a bed of roses, they had their thorns too. Out from the Madras Film Institute in the late 70's, his first film 'Punadhirallu' did not give him the necessary impetus for a robust career, as it took to screen after a long hiatus. But later started, 'Pranam Kareedhu' was the first released film and his role in the next film 'Manavuri Pandavulu,' directed by Bapu gave him a launch pad for a bright career. However the commercial hero status to the star was given by A Kodandarami Reddy's 'Khaidhi' in 1983. from then on wards there was no looking back for the star.

And the success journey continued for almost two decades and more. Chiru was moved by the flood victims plight in the late nineties. Though he donated for the cause liberally, his outreach attitude was never quenched and he formed the Chiranjeevi Charitable Trust (CCT) in 1998, to reach out the needy. As he realized that if one man contributes it is limited but creating an awakening amidst a larger base, the contributions are abundant. With this in minds he felt CCT would create the awareness. And for the larger base, he had the easy access to millions through his versatile acting skills. To maximize his service reach, CCT listed  Chiranjeevi Blood and Eye Banks. As per stats CCT is the  largest recipient of blood and eye donations, in the state. Infact CCT has reached out to numerous people in need,over 68,000 blood donations through and 1,414 eye donations, lists Wiki.

The reach out was so phenomenal that each of his audio cassette had a self declaration form for his fans to donate their eyes to the needy, as per norms. On most of his birthdays there were large blood camps organized by his fans and the donations reached the bank to help the needy too. All this needed meticulous planning and profound patronage, who else than Chiru, could accomplish this mammoth task. Yet the reaching out instincts to the needy, in him, were still not quenched, the thirst continued. In 2009 he started his political party PRP, with a slogan for social empowerment through social justice. However he was able to erode the base of Telugu Desam Party and Congress alike, he lost many seats in low majorities. Finally PRP could just win 18 MLA seats with 18% vote share.

With this point many thought that the political novice (as claimed by his critics) would turn his back to his aspirations. But Chiru was in no mood for bowing out, to the defeats, but was in hibernation for sometime. Later after the death of the former Chief Minister Y S Rajashekar Reddy in 2009 in a fatal air accident, Congress had a leadership crisis. And in 2011 Congress was pinned down by the  YSR Congress party headed by Y S Jagan Mohan Reddy, in the form of a non-confidence motion, in the assembly. And Congress had to call on Chiru for a support in the form of a merger. PRP was formally merged with the Congress on 6 February 2011 (after thirty months of existence). This was also blamed by the critics as a suicidal step by the PRP. But Chiru who had now become the 'Political Chanukya' knew that his move would give him the 'king pin's' status. And the byelections consolidated his prowess and powers.

Sitting in the Rajya Sabha as a Congress Leader, Chiru has never involved himself in mudslinging or taking shots of the ruling leaders. He was concentrating in making a path for getting his objectives of 'serving the people' fulfilled. Chiru is a well-balanced politician, this was visible when most politicians were pondering over the (by)-electoral gains, he carried on with his son's wedding, confident about his stakes. Such was the vision of the leader who delivered what promised and maintained all his duties as a human, actor and a politician. Wishesh wishes the Megastar of Politics a Happy Birthday and also wishes him success in his mission. (With inputs from internet-AW AarKay)

 

Congress limps, Dharmanna abuses power!

 

Smitten by corrupted leaders, erring to save for generations to come has become a day-to-day affair in the state. With same stories repeating in daily media. Day before it was late Y S Rajashekar Reddy who had gone out of the way in abusing his power as the Chief Minister, while rendering favors to his son Jagan Mohan Reddy. Yesterday it was Mopidevi who was exposed in the liquor scam and today it is the minister for roads and buildings, Dharmana Prasad. But the thought, 'tomorrow', for the Congress leaders must be dreadful, as the CBI puts its scanner on many ministers in the Jagan's disproportionate assets case. Who will be the next, feel the observers and where is the limit.

At this rate we would be having almost have most bigwigs involved in slew of alleged abuse of power issues. However concentrating on the latest victim to the CBI axes, rewrites the YSR-Jagan story with Dharmana and his son Dharmana Ram Manohar Naidu, of course with names changed, instead of the formers. As the modus-operandi for favoring his son in gaining major shares in the valuable beach sands projects, looked similar. The way the funds were diverted and power abused were on similar lines to the former duo, says a leading media daily. Right now Dharmana has been listed as the fifth accused by the CBI in the Jagan DA case. The CBI listed the alleged role of the former Minister in their fourth chargesheet submitted late last week. This was done after questioning the minister twice earlier.

Dharmana, a senior leader of the Congress, was a four time MLA of the Srikakulam Constituency and a trusted lieutenant of the late YSR. Hailing from the BC Velama community in the north coastal districts, he was instrumental in the Congress winning a majority of the seats in his native district of Srikakulam, in the 2009 elections.  As per the CBI the erstwhile Vanpic deal garnered liberal sanctions from the revenue department when the leader was at the helm of affairs. Infact sources claim that the minister felicitated to illegally acquire lands for Vanpic,  under the guise of development of the backward region.

Industrialist Nimmagadda Prasad who heads the Vanpic Projects Private Limited was alleged to have invested in Jagan's company on quid pro quo arrangement for land allotted to the port project by the then YSR government. And Dharmana was alleged to be instrumental in overseeing the project took off well as helmed the revenue department, around that time. In principle Vanpic Infrastructure project in 2008 was to construct ports and an industrial corridor in the Prakasam and Guntur districts, intended to industrialize this largely-agricultural area.

Though this is the original issue that lead to the CBI cornering Dharmana, a recent media report enlightens how the trusted lieutenant turns a kingpin in the beach sands project in Srikakulam district which has his own family as the epicentre of beneficiaries. This is worth a noting that needs to briefed on the media report that has appeared in a leading daily this morning. The project which had an estimate of Rs 1875 Cr had an initial announcement of 768 hectares, which was briskly followed by another allotment of  709 hectares. Infact the project would have got in to the book of records for the brisk nature of government sanctions that it had in its kitty.

Under normal circumstances a project take off in the country takes..........................., I know the sufferers will fill the columns about the process. But with the Minister behind there was effervescent movement was visible in the mammoth proposal, every thing was in place in no time. For another issue the project will go in records is, inspite of the rapid movement the original company went into oblivion and a new company was in place for the development. Mind boggling is the report that turned eyeballs in today's print edition.

One point that needs to be noted out here is that the heavy mineral beach sands are used along with with Titanium and other rarely available minerals to make various high cost alloys, which are more valued than the costliest metals. This belt on which the project was proposed was rich with ilmenite mixed with  heavy mineral beach sands, with natural abundance. So an ideal cash rich resource which would have made the promoters listed in the Forbes too, say critics. What a master plan, sir, you excelled your mentor, add observers.


Chronicle of events as they unfolded: 

1.    2005 June 23: Dharmana along with his kin forms a company 'Bay Minerals Pvt Ltd' with a mere capital of Rs 1.35 lakhs.

2.    2005 August 03: APMDC issues a notification for starting a joint venture to explore the  768 hectares of heavy mineral beach sands, with private participation.

3.    2005 August 11: VV Minerals from Tamil Nadu solicits interest in exploring as per the notification.

4.    2006 July 25: After going the credentials APMDC sanctions the JV project to VV Minerals.

5.    2006 July 27: Dharmana's 'Bay Minerals Pvt Ltd', signs an share holding agreement with VV Minerals Pvt Ltd. And as per the agreement  VV Minerals Pvt Ltd would get 63 percent and  Bay Minerals will get 26 percent share in the JV with APMDC. The government agency to get the remaining 11 percent. However the irony is that  VV Minerals Pvt Ltd was never allotted the project and it was  VV Minerals that was sanctioned by APMDC, as of date.

6.    2006 September 29: APMDC recommendations to the joint venture with VV Minerals had been approved by the government in GO no: 273.

7.    2006 October 12:  VV Minerals urges the  APMDC to amend the agreement in favour of VV Minerals Pvt Ltd. This clearly shows the intentions of the later company.

8.    2006 October 13: APMDC obliges the request of VV Minerals and the fresh amendment in favor of VV Minerals Pvt Ltd. Just imagine under what pressures the act would have been in just a day?

9.    2006 December 14:  VV Minerals Pvt Ltd urges APMDC for more land. And also specifies where and how much land was required for the joint venture to provide employment to many youth.

10.    2006 December 27: the government instantly responded to the urge and processed GO no: 374, and all other formalities were in place at a rapid pace.

11.    2006 December 30:  APMDC and VV Minerals Pvt Ltd, ink the agreement as bureaucrat V D Rajagopal takes over the consortium as Managing Director. And the most astonishing fact is that the APMDC agrees on a 11 percent share, with the rest in the hands of  VV Minerals Pvt Ltd. Does it sound similar to the private agreement made by Dharmana & Co on 2006 July 27!

12.    2008 December 05: Dharmana Ram Manohar Naidu and Dharmana's man-Friday, Allu Kesav Jogi Nayudu take over as the additional directors in VV Minerals Pvt Ltd. Another close relative of Dharmana, Rahul Muddada takes over as the Joint Managing Director of the company. As per the agreement VV Minerals Pvt Ltd had to shell out Rs 1875 Cr, for the development of the project. And do you know
Rahul Muddada's acre off address is similar to the house number of the former minister's bungalow allotted by the government. Infact he loans the investment of Rs 2.6 Lakhs on behalf of  Bay Minerals Pvt Ltd, as its share.

13.    Final Word: As per the agreement APMDC never got its rightful share of 11 percent, till date. This was visible in the company's statement released on 31-03-2011.

After this things slowed down:

1.    2010 November 11:  APMDC recommends for suspending the agreement with VV Minerals pvt Ltd as the later had violated the conditions...this is pending.

2.    2011 July 11: Jagan DA case, CBI investigations begin.

3.    2011 July 13: Flutter in Dharmana camp, nearly six directors resign from VV Minerals pvt Ltd.

4.    2011 July 18: Even  Dharmana Ram Manohar Naidu resigns from VV Minerals pvt Ltd. Now the sole person from the Dharamana & Co in the erstwhile VV Minerals pvt Ltd, is  Rahul Muddada.

The whole melodrama unfolds as a setback to the ruling party, which is already bogged down by various crisis. And the resignation of the minister is sure to set the precedent for others implicated in the case. But what will happen to the ruling party that is severely haunted by its arch rivals, miserably. Only a messiah could save the honors of the old horse and bring it back to power cleansing the sins of the few. And if so who could it be...a million dollar question, leaving it to your guesses.

S11 Syndrome For Train Passengers

After last Monday, any train passenger in India traveling by S 11 coach is sure to feel a pinch of pessimism, before boarding the train. Well the main reason is the ghastly accident that occurred on Monday Morning in the Tamil Nadu Express bound to Chennai, in the sleeper coach with the same number. Taking a leaf of my own experience shows the real feelings in a personal event. Actually my Mother and family were planning to Shirdi since some time and we planned it for Tuesday (31 July 2012).

We were a group of twenty members family traveling. A few of us were allotted in S 13 while a few got it in S 11 coach. The dreaded coach figured in our tickets. Unfortunately I could not make it as my boss did not grant me permission. And my tension started mounting as some of my family members had boarded the S 11 coach. Another point was that I was not traveling with them either. Inspite of giving them adequate and repeated instructions, I was restless the whole night. I regained my lost control only after receiving a wake-up call from my mother that they alighted at Nagarsol Station by 6 am on time and by God's grace, intact.

Well many may be wondering why I was tensed to that extent about the S 11 coach syndrome! To get a clearer view on that one should get to know the details of the ill fated train at Nellore station in Andhra Pradesh. Tamil Nadu express was traveling from New Delhi to Chennai, on Monday, as usual cruising at a speed of 110 kmph while passing through the Nellore station. As the train did not have a scheduled halt at the station, it was moving along in top speeds. Just then an alert Deputy Station Master noticed fire in the train. Immediately he informed the authorities and rescue operations were in place, on a war-footing.


However the fire in the coach had razed the compartment to ashes with in fifteen minutes. The accident had claimed thirty or more lives and left several injured. In total the coach had 72 reserved passengers and some more unreserved occupants at the time of the accident. As per sources the accident occurred due to a short circuit near one of its toilets, at around 4.30 am in the morning. Practically in the next two hours the train was to reach its destination, Chennai, but fate had decided otherwise for the ill-fated passengers.


Due to the monsoon low temperatures most of the windows in the coach were shut and this aggravated the death toll. Most passengers were in deep sleep, due in the odd hours of dawn. As the fumes started engulfing most of them became unconscious and died in an intoxicated state. The rest made a mad rush to get out of the coach, but the stampede had resulted in several getting injured. The main reasons for the mad rush was the whole train was dark with fumes and three of the four doors were jammed.


Rescue teams rushed on-time and cut open the coach from the front vestibule connection to rescue the survivors. It was a sad end to many passengers who died in the train. Most of the charred bodies were beyond recognition. Pathetic situation that prevailed in the chaos, inside the S 11 coach, as one survivor recalled, 'everything happened with in few minutes'.

Jagan, trending topic on the national radar

Going with the latest trends on leading online media, yes it is true that the whole nation is looking towards what will happen to Y S Jaganmohan Reddy. Jagan as he is fondly called as by his supporters is the Chief of a regional party YSR Congress named after his father late Y S Rajasekhar Reddy (YSR), the former Chief Minister.

Even ND TV has opened up a live blog for Jagan who is right now being quizzed by the CBI at Hyderabad in the disproportionate assets. He is been alleged to have misused YSR’s power for his benefits. Looking at the anticipation level of the readers, we have furnished the below the material collected from various online sources for reader enrichment, only. With speculations rife that the young leader might be arrested by the CBI, the views of a cross section of media are listed.



The CBI inquiry into Jagan’s business empire and the source of its funds was ordered by the Andhra Pradesh High Court in August 2011.  CBI alleges that when the late YSR was in office, he had abused his power and conspired with the ministers to influence entrepreneurs to invest in his son’s companies for favors from the government.

Jagan arrived at the CBI office after meeting, Vijay Sai Reddy at his residence. CBI office was thronged by innumerous followers of the leader. Security has been tightened around the CBI office.  Mr Vijay Sai Reddy was earlier quizzed by the CBI on the irregularities of investments in the Jagathi publications, also owned by Jagan.

Enforcement Directorate Angle:

Enforcement Directorate have reached the CBI office in Dilsukha Guest house and shall be questioning Jagan on the issues based on the statement made by Nimmagadda Prasad. They would also question him on the funds flowing from the companies of Vanpic, Bharathi, Carmel and other companies into the companies of Jagan. Earlier ED had sought, the special CBI Court, permission of questioning Jagan.



Late last December the Enforcement Directorate had registered a case under the provisions of Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) 2002 against him and is also probing alleged contravention of foreign exchange rules in his financial transactions and investments. The ED action has come after the CBI had registered a case against Jagan and had searched various premises belonging to him.

The most prominent speculation on the public minds is, will the ED corner the YSRC leader at this point and arrest him for the PMLA case. In such a case the young leader will be taken to the nation’s capital and for further questioning and probably also arrested there. If that is so the impact in the state capital would be a little less feel sources. However everything is based on figs of imagination only and until firm announcements are made nothing could be ascertained.

As per the PMLA act, Offence of money laundering: Whosoever directly or indirectly attempts to indulge or know¬ingly assists or knowingly is a party or is actually involved in any process or activity connected with the proceeds of crime and projecting it as untainted property shall be guilty of offence of money-laundering.

Punishment for money-laundering.-- Whoever commits the offence of money-laundering shall be punishable with rigorous imprisonment for a term which shall not be less than three years but which may extend to seven years and shall also be liable to fine which may extend to five lakh rupees: Provided that where the proceeds of crime involved in money-laundering relates to any offence specified under paragraph 2 of Part A of the Schedule, the provisions of this section shall have effect as if for the words "which may extend to seven years", the words "which may extend to ten years" had been substituted.

Communal War:
With the by-polls for 18 constituencies scheduled for June 12 will it be embarrassing for the ruling Congress and the YSR Congress, is a notable question at this point. As the YSR Congress Chief quizzing might bring out many prominent bigwigs names and that could be setback for the Congress. Meanwhile YSR Congress party is turning out to be a Reddy dominated party say sources.

Another community unity is reportedly being witnessed in the state as Jaganmohan Reddy is presumably getting closer to the bars.  Since Jaganmohan Reddy (although a Christian) has ‘Reddy’ tag with his name and this would apparently be sufficient for him drag all Reddys towards his side. Already ex-TDP leader Mysoora Reddy has strongly backed YS Jaganmohan Reddy for which he is being expelled from TDP. He even stated that he would join YSR Congress in a couple of days and he would support Jaganmohan Reddy since Jagan was like his son.  But, people at various tea shops were reportedly discussing that Mysoora Reddy supported Jagan only for community.

Yet another prominent leader of the Congress, YS Vivekanda Reddy too quit the party with which he had been associated for the past three decades. Although he said he left Congress as he was upset with the party for spitting venom on his late brother YSR. It appears like the relationship between Jagan and YS Viveka is playing big at the end...now, he is most likely to join YSR Congress..

Earlier the Bhuma Nagireddy couple quit from Chiranjeevi’s Prajarajyam Party after its merger with Congress and joined the YSR Congress.  (With Inputs from Internet- Aarkay & Phani)

Steep Hike Of Petrol Prices Burden Common Man

 

Petrol hike-yet another burden on middle class section in the country! With the Centre hiking petrol prices barely within a day after the petroleum minister Jaipal Reddy stressed on the need to increase oil prices came in as a shock to n number of people in the country, who commute on their own vehicles.

Rs. 7.54 hike per litre is what apparently irking the people who are using the social media platforms such as Facebook and Twitter for expressing their vain.  Such a steep increase in petro prices is supposedly the massive hike the country ever witnessed.

In Kolkata, the present petrol prices are currently Rs. 77.88 per liter and till yesterday they were Rs. 70. 03.



Hyderabad 81.50 Rs/liter

May 15, 2011, the petrol prices were increased by five rupees and now again by seven rupees. The oil minutes said depreciation in the rupee has forced them to increase the fuel prices. The prices of LPG and oil are not increased so far as the decision has to be taken after a consensus among political parties in the country.

All in all, common man is apparently facing too much of burden due to the constant increase in petrol prices and sky rocketing prices of essential commodities. (Phani)

Sethusamudram is a belief that has to be respected!!!!

The controversial Sethusamudram project had been under sharp criticism right from the day it was proposed. One side the pious don’t want it, on the side the government feels need to enhance trade….

There seems to be many things going between the Lankans and the people of ours state. First it was the war crimes, later it was the frequent attacks of Lankan navy on Indian Fisher folks and now the Sethusamudhram Project. The project was thoroughly condemned by the chaste Hindus. In a latest bid the Tamil Nadu Chief Minister requested the Prime Minister Manmohan Singh to name the original bridge supposed to be built by Sri Rama as monument. The CM sent a letter in this regards to the PM, on Wednesday from the state capital.
In order to reduce the steaming distances between the east and west coasts of India and to improve the navigation within the territorial waters of India a number of proposals were considered to cut a ship channel called Sethusamudram Ship connecting the Gulf of Mannar with the Palk Bay.
The letter circulated to the media cites Ms. Jayalalithaa raising strong objections to the alignment of Sethu Samudram Channel project and said: "I request you to take necessary action to communicate the views of the government of India to the Supreme Court that it would take immediate steps for declaring the site as a national monument. The state government will separately be filing a counter to express its stand," she added.
Several cases have been filed in the Madras High Court and the Supreme Court against the Sethu Samudram project that proposed to dredge the Palk Strait so that shipping is possible between the western and eastern coasts instead of circumventing Sri Lanka.  As part of the project, it was planned to break the Ram Sethu/Adam's Bridge considered sacred by Hindus as the bridge built to Lanka by Hindu god Rama. Referring to the various writ petitions, Ms Jayalalithaa said she had also filed a writ petition in the apex court in 2007. In her petition, she prayed for a direction by the apex court to direct the central government and Tuticorin Port Trust to declare Ram Sethu as a national monument and prevent any damage to it.
For the interest of the individuals: This Bridge is the site of Rama's Bridge, making it a religious monument of significance to the Hindus. While the age of the Ram Setu may be a matter of discussion, it commands high importance as a religious symbol in the minds of majority of Hindus. Nevertheless, the Govt. of India through Mr. Nariman submitted before the Supreme Court of India on 22 July 2008 that “Kamba Ramayanam say that the bridge was destroyed by Lord Ram so that no one can cross over to Sri Lanka and ships can sail through. The Telugu version of Ramayana also says Lord Ram destroyed the bridge.” (With inputs from internet- AarKay)
