Telangana flavour

TDP songs with a Telangana flavor

There was no mistaking the similarity in the rhythm of the pro-Telangana song Osmania campus lo udayinchina kiranama... and Rythu koraku ranam cheyya Chandrababu kadilera ... that blared out of loud speakers during the Rythu Poru Bata of Telugu Desam Party (TDP) president N. Chandrababu Naidu in Adilabad on Wednesday. The ‘copying' was perhaps intended to show people in the region that TDP relates itself with the separate Telangana cause as Mr. Naidu treads the territory.

The TDP song has even been sung by one of the many private singers in the region who had brought out the pro-Telangana song during the Sakala Janula Samme. While the Telangana song mentions the districts in the region, the other one which eulogises the struggle of the TDP chief in solving farmers problems makes mention of districts from other regions as well. Copying of rhythm or other aspects in a song in not unknown in the world of politics.
