1)The farmer was one who grew tobacco from the West Godavari district; honestly speaking West Godavari is one of the most fertile districts of the entire state if not the most fertile district. But tobacco farmers have recently been suffering a lot recently across AP including West godavari even though the best tobacco in the State is produced in West Godavari in the northern light soils (NLS).

Greed Lands Tobacco Farmers In Trouble - The Hans India
The greed of farmers to produce more tobacco without authorisation and inability of the Tobacco Board to educate farmers to limit the cultivation are the reasons for the deaths of tobacco farmers.

The Tobacco Board permitted farmers to cultivate tobacco up to 172 million kg in 2014-15. Generally, farmers cultivate about 20 per cent more than authorised
.


2)Regarding help for the tobacco farmers, first of all CBN has been going ahead with the farm loan waiver despite the financial constraints of AP..

Also I don't need to mention the river linking project of Pattiseema & the Thottapalli project , both of which will help farmers from Uttar Andhra to Rayalaseema
I started and completed Thotapalli: Naidu - The Hindu

& he is doing his best to help the tobacco farmers with help from the centre in form of Nirmala Sitharaman ji

Tobacco Board chief sent on leave over apathy towards farmers | Business Line
Tobacco Board Chairman K Gopal has been asked to proceed on leave with immediate effect until further orders by the Commerce Department for showing ‘lack of sensitivity’ towards farmers’ suicides and travelling overseas in the midst of crisis.

Bail-out Package for Tobacco Farmers -The New Indian Express
Coming to the rescue of tobacco farmers whose produce has been rejected citing discolouration, the Central and state governments have announced a joint package to bail them out.

Farmers whose tobacco was rejected at the tobacco auction platforms will be provided Rs 20 per kilo of tobacco with the Central government sharing 75 per cent, that is Rs 15 a kg, and the state government bearing the rest (25 per cent, that is Rs 5 per kg).

Announcing it at a joint press conference here Friday, union minister of state for commerce and industry Nirmala Sitharaman and chief minister N Chandrababu Naidu had urged the traders to come forward to procure tobacco. Sitharaman said even if the farmer gets Rs 40 per kilo at the auction, the joint package announced by the Union and state governments will help him get around Rs 60 a kg.


Union Minister assures Centre’s help in tackling drought, asks farmers not to resort to suicides - The Hindu

Also the no. of farmers who have committed suicide in AP over loan problems since last June are 38(including this one), so the situtation thankfully isn't that bad.

3)Regarding CBN's luxury bus:-
Chandrababu Naidu versus K Chandrasekar Rao: what one has, the other wants | The Indian Express
Naidu already had a hired one with basic comforts; he spent nights in it while camping in Vizag after Cyclone Hudhud. Then KCR ordered one from Mercedes Benz with better facilities. Naidu ordered one for himself with similar facilities, including teleconferencing and WiFi, a place for meetings and a hydraulic lift to the roof. Each bus costs more than Rs 5 crore.

It is not a bus for aaram & masti, work is supposed to be done from this bus which will eventually help the state, though if u ask me he the article is right at there being some a competition b/w KCR & CBN..
-------------------------------------------
KCR even wants to build TG's version of Tirupathi at Yadagiri & Chilkuru [=D LOL!!!] which will be "competition" for Tirupathi.

First of all , he must realise that Tirupathi is visited by people all over India & especially from the South due to this being the abode of "Tirupathi Balaji " & not because of any publicity. Even the Chilkuru Balaji mandir in TG came up after the Lord Venkateshwara came to Chilkuru in the form of an idol for an old devotee who wanted to visit Tirupathi to glance upon him

Chilkur Balaji Temple - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I have gone to Yadagirigutta & Chilkuru, they are only visited by Telugus . Though the move to modernise & develop them is highly laudable :) & the need of the hour (though the reasons behind it are not).

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
But at the end of the day, the suicide of this farmer is highly condemnable & saddening. :( All we can hope is that the tobacco farmers receive the help promised from the centre+they follow advice given by a more sensitive tobacco board in the future.

Sister Amala murder: Kerala police say nun's killer identified; 3 detained

Earlier,Kottayam-based man Nasar had surrendered at the Mahe police station claiming that he had killed the nun. However, he was released after the police found him mentally unstable.


The name Satheesh Babu is no more an indicator that the man is a Hindu than the name of the murdered nun Amala or the district police chief Satheesh Bino.



.. Kottayam: A week after a Catholic nun was found dead in her convent in Pala, the Police on Wednesday said it had identified the culprit in the murder case.
The police said they identified the murderer of Sr Amala of Carmelite convent, Pala, as Satheesh Babu, hailing from Kasargod. His photograph has also been released.
The probe team got information about him following investigation conducted focusing mobile phone towers.
The nun was found lying in a pool of blood in her room, with a deep cut on her head on September 17.
Police in Kottayam have formed eight teams to solve the nun's murder at a convent in Pala. The convent housed 38 inmates.
The post-mortem examination report said the nun was hit with a strong object.

.. KOTTAYAM:The police team probing the mysterious death of Sr. Amala of Lisieux Carmelite Convent in Pala quizzed scores of people as part of evidence collection, on Friday. And the police have reportedly ruled out the involvement of K P Nazar, 48, of Kottayam, who had surrendered in a Mahe police station claiming he committed the murder, in the case since he is said to be mentally unstable....
Sanghis are trying hard to defend a HINDU serial killer..haha...

First off, there is no mention of this Satheesh Babu being a serial killer, they say he is a serial offender. Do not know how serial killers are out on the loose like this if the State Police already knew he was a serial killer. Again, no mention of his religion or his affiliation to any Sangh outfits have been done. Also the name Satheesh and Babu are very common in Kerala Christians too.

So they released the guy who admitted his crime, and arrested some other guy based on some flimsy mobile phone tower tracking? Makes sense, noT!

Sister Amala (69) of Lisieux Carmelite Convent was murdered by Kasaragod native Satheesh Babu, police said, adding that he was a serial offender who targeted convents.
Three people, including Satheesh Babu's close aide and a relative, were taken into police custody recently.

I didn't liked to drag religion unnecessary in this case..PDF sanghis like RANJEETH have tried to potray this as a sexual abuse and mocked Christianity in a thread posted by a Pakistani..that's why...
Indian sanghis became laughing stocks nowadays,that's why even Nepali Hindus are tried of them and have started fking them these days in various social platforms..
 
Rahul Baba is apparently in the US to give an interview to Charlie Rose, the man who interviews thought leaders from around the world. I am Soooooo looking forward to this. I really hope they telecast it. :lol:

Again, no mention of the suspect's religion has been done, so I do not know what information you have that others don't. Nepal officially turned into a Hindu country, that is enough victory for Sanghis, so any fking is purely in your mind and of your peace.

Rajasthan government breaches 50% bar, quota now at 68% - The Times of India

Overcorrection upon RSS remarks by Rajsthan BJP. I hope it gets shot down by courts.


Don't they need 2/3rd majority in both RS and LS for doing that ??

Parties those bank on muslim votes need to worry about that. BJP never/doesn't need them, so may they collect 10 crore signature , it doesn't make difference. But it's time BJP delivers on it's promises and brings UCC.Even RSS is mum on this these days.

I hope SC shoots this down
