Goud to spice up T with social justice

Though there are no signs of any leaders of other political parties of consequence joining T Devender Goud, scores of university professors and grassroot level workers, mostly from the TDP and TRS, are likely to join forces with him.
According to sources, Goud is planning to add social justice to his separate Telangana state slogan to give the movement a social objective as well. This will herald a new phase in the fight for a separate Telangana state in the region, the sources said. “Never in the past have protagonists of the Telangana movement shown the people what they can achieve if a separate state is ever formed,” said the sources.
Goud, for the past two days, has been holding discussions with professors of Osmania and Kakatiya universities and some researchers of CESS in Hyderabad and other sympathisers of Telangana to chalk out a twin programme of separate state and social justice.
Already, People’s Telangana Foundation, a body of teachers of Osmania University, has passed a resolution endorsing the policies of Goud, expressed in his first press conference.
Goud’s first interface with the people on Saturday is expected to be dominated by professors, lawyers and other professionals along with several district level leaders who are basically the foot soldiers for all political parties.
The interface, being organised as a preparatory for the launch of his new party, is going to provide the ideological foundation of the proposed outfit. “The meeting is expected to redefine the Telangana movement in terms of social justice. This concept is expected to broadbase the Telangana movement with widespread participation of masses. This is a departure from the conventional sense of Telangana movement,” professor S Simhadri, convernor of the foundation.
The convention, being held at Pingali Venkatrama Reddy Hall, will be inaugurated by prof K Jaishankar, a Telangana ideologue, and addressed by intellectuals and district level leaders who joined Goud recently. Goud will leave for the venue after paying tributes to martyrs of Telangana at the memorial opposite the state assembly on Saturday morning. “Goud will spell out the his road map for his movement in his concluding remarks,”
