Telangana Language Day was celebrated on 9 September on the occasion birthday of renowned writer, poet of Kaloji Narayana Rao. After formation of Telangana, several such days are celebrated remembering leaders and their contributions from the past.

Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao on several occasions noted that many heroes from Telangana did not get due recognition and that the TRS government is putting all efforts to make ensure that future generations are aware of the great leaders.

But hypocrisy of the TRS supremo is evident from the way they have been avoiding Telangana Liberation Day celebrations. The stalwarts about whom KCR speaks about – Doddi Komaraiah, Chakali Ailamma, Bhaghya Reddy Varma, Kaloji Narayana Rao, Suravaram Pratap Reddy and many more, all of these people fought against the atrocities of Nizam.

There is no point in celebrating these leaders, if the cause for which they fought is not recognised and celebrated. Moreover, KCR is ensuring that the students get only half knowledge which is favourable for TRS to reign over the newly formed state.

While the liberation day is celebrated officially in Maharashtra and Karnataka, even after the bifurcation the TRS government failed to recognize this day, because of vote-bank politics as it might anger AIMIM.

On 17 September, 1948, Indian armed forces officially put an end to the 200-year-old Nizam rule in the present-day Telangana, parts of Maharashtra and Karnataka annexing the Hyderabad state into the Indian Union.

Bharatiya Janata Party has been demanding official celebrations on September 17 as Telangana Liberation Day for the past 18 years. TRS before bifurcation of state wanted the Andhra Pradesh government to celebrate it.
