If we Indians now enjoy an array of global products that are delivered to our doorstep in no time, that credit invariably goes to a Telugu statesman. Pamulaparthi Venkata Narasimha Rao, the 10th prime minister of India, who introduced much needed economic reforms in 1990s to save the country from the brink of economic collapse, was a man of great visionary.

This issue cover story recalls the yeoman services rendered by this gentleman and how he steered the nation despite uneventful events like Babri Masjid demolition and subsequent emergence of communal forces.

Second senior most judge of the Supreme Court Justice Jasti Chelameswar, who recently said that there should be a debate on the criterion to be followed for elevation to the apex court, has resented the government's alleged interference in independent functioning of the judiciary. ``Close relations between the judiciary and the government means death of democracy'', highlights the impending danger to the country.

The Smart Andhra Pradesh foundation (SAPF) has been transforming the rural landscape of digital Andhra Pradesh by developing smart villages and tapping the potential of villagers.

The initial euphoria over the Prime Minister Narendra Modi's regime seems to be evaporating fast. His policies like demonetisation and GST boomeranged and one-poll-one-nation idea added to his failure list. Resentment is brewing across the country with experts terming it unrealistic.
Other stories like Araku Aroma, Vontimitta, Amaravati zoo, cinema, and jokes surely make reading interesting and exciting.

The Horsely Hills, the Ooty of Andhra Pradesh, with its cool climes, offers relief to 5-crore Telugus to escape from the scorching summer.

Let us make this summer more tolerable to the birds by keeping little bowls of water on our terraces and balconies. Small gestures like these are worth our time and a great help to our fellow creatures.

xHappy Holidays!!
