The members of Interfaith Forum strongly condemn the incidence of violence in Kishan Bagh between the Sikh and the Muslim communities in the morning of 14th May 2014.
It is very unfortunate that some vested interests seemed to have succeeded in their aim to bring Muslims and Sikhs at loggerheads by damaging Sikh religious flag at Sikh Chowni, Kishan Bagh, Hyderabad in the intervening night of 13-14 May 2014. In retaliation, it is reported that innocent passerby was lethally attacked in morning hours of 14th May 2014. continue reading indtoday.com

Testing time for police The Hindu

With two Governments operating from the city maintaining law and order will be a challenging task

Having two separate police Commissionerates is not the only distinction the over four-centuries-old Hyderabad has. From June 2, it is going to be the common capital for 10 years for the two States of Telangana and residuary Andhra Pradesh.

With two Chief Ministers, along with their respective Council of Ministers, and two Governments operating within a few kilometres of radius, protection of VVIPs surely would be a challenge. In this VVIP-centric policing, it is a moot point to wonder what’s in store for the common man in terms of safety, security and smoother journey on road points of view.continue reading The Hindu

  The author Narendra Luther presents a number of interesting articles on Hyderabad in his book “Legendotes of Hyderabad.”Photo: K. Ramesh Babu.

Hasan became a major in the INA and participated in the march from Burma (now Myanmar) across the Indian frontier. The army reached Imphal. It was severely handicapped in supplies and armaments and so had to retreat, the author says.

• Bose secretary coined Jai Hind, says book:

“Bose wanted to introduce an Indian form of greeting for his army, and for independent India. Various suggestions came. Hasan suggested ‘Hello’. Netaji snubbed him. Then he suggested ‘Jai Hind’. Netaji liked it and it became the official form of greeting in INA and the revolutionary Indians. Later it was adopted as the official slogan of the country,” he says. The book mentions about 70 legends, anecdotes and personal accounts beginning from the beautiful rocks of the Deccan plateau to Bhagamati, to the developments during the era of Nizams and beyond. continue reading: Oman Tribune

Save Hyderabad from unscrupulous writers distorting history - Sign the petition please

Petition created by Created by Bakhtyar K. Malaysia

Why this is important
We have to tell the younger generation what the true History of Hyderabad is and what the Qutub Shahi and Asaf Jahi dynasties did to make it the RICHEST and most powerful Princely State in British India.The help rendered by His Exalted Highness Nawab Sir OSMAN ALI KHAN, Asaf Jah VII to the British Empire in the two world wars in 1914 and 1939.The TEHZEEB( Etiquette) and SECULARITY as practised in those days and the separation of the Executive from the Judiciary as early as 1921 and the PROHIBITION of forced labour in 1922 much before these were enacted in British India.The hundereds of buildings are to be preserved for posterity.

Let HYDERABADIS ALL AROUND the world rise together and put a permanent end to writers who are spinning tales and minting money with wrong projections of the city being named after a woman who never actually existed. Captain Bakhtyar S Kaoosji Malaysia.
