Just learnt that Kohinoor was from #Warangal , and Rudrama Devi might have died at a war, on field, fighting, when she was 80 years old! Wow! Also, will #India ever get the Kohinoor back?! Is that even important?! #Telangana #History #WomenWhoRuledIndia #SundayMotivation

Thank you @Paul_Oommen for giving #WomensCommissionMatters the attention it deserves. Some clarifications - I am not an RTI activist. I have filed only one RTI in my life thanks to help from @robin1087 - I don't endorse your hashtag. But, I will endorse #Justice

Let's all beware of such virtual friendships. Dont lend money just because of their SM pretense world. If a person doesnt have time to explain - they are busy scamming around - do NOT engage. Let's identify such people and help each other.

#InstaLive #Conversations #WomComMatters I know 💯 that it's going to be fun. So much over confidence that I'm prepared for any possible embarrassment. What if my mum says, "This feminist daughter is all talk and does no work at home?!" :P

Out of curiosity, sir, does this message apply only to citizens or public representatives also. Cuz, a certain MLA from Telangana has some questionable content everyday. And, he doesn't spare police either in them. Just asking, sir.

Be very cautious before posting anything on Social Media. Last night there was violence in Banglore because of such social media post. We will take very firm legal action for any irresponsible post. We can not allow under any circumstances our city to get bad name.

He would always pretend that it was an urgent need, with promises of returning almost immediately, extreme emergency where he cant explain the situation but needs money for life saving purposes, name-dropped famous/ credible people and whatnot. Do NOT fall for it.

"please stay on call" A line I have heard numerous times, all my life. Heard stories of women pretending to be on call during travel. Why?! Why should women feel unsafe?! After this, we'll be asked, stay safe, keep calling. I ask, what are you doing to make it safer?!!!

My sister has been taken into questioning by the Medpally police Station in Ghatkesar because her friend went missing. We understand its absolutely important. But, the inspector has been beyond disrespectful all day and has still kept her in the station. Looking for advocates...

Btw, its not to say he did not help anybody. He must have helped a few - but at whose cost? why? Sad that just beacuse of one person - we now will face more challenges in trusting/ collaborating/ fundraising.

My State of #Telangana (erstwhile Andhra Pradesh) has never had a female Chief Minister. While I'm pumped about @KamalaHarris 's win & the history made, One day, hopefully this decade, I'd like to celebrate a leader at home who represents inclusion.

@IJaising This is India. Where Asha maa lives haunting days and nights fighting 100 battles, going through all legal processes, and see her daughter's case become a joke by the day. Maybe, encounter wasn't that bad a solution, after all.

The committee that 'unanimously' decided to let 11 murderers/rapists walk free was headed by the collector. I'm going to start giving this example to all the kids who aspire to become an IAS officer. To help them keep their moral compass & find better dreams. #BilkisBano
