Bathukamma celebrations at India Gate in Delhi; credit goes to KCR, says Kavitha

New Delhi: Telangana Bathukamma got a rare honour. For the first time, ‘Bathukamma’ celebrations were organised in New Delhi under the auspices of the Union Ministry of Culture. Union Minister Kishan Reddy, along with Telugu women of Delhi, participated in the celebrations held in front of Kartavya Path (India Gate).

Kishan Reddy's wife Kavya, Jeevita Rajasekhar, former mayor of Hyderabad Banda Kartika and many other women took parat in the ‘Bathukamma’ fete. Another feature is that the Culture Department has set up four LED screens in front of India Gate to watch the ‘Bathukamma’ celebrations.

Credit goes to KCR, said MLC Kavitha responding to the Bathukamma celebrations in Delhi. "Eight years after the formation of Telangana, BJP came to its senses. Bathukamma fete was organised in front of India Gate. All this is the greatness of KCR. The BJP on the one hand says ‘liberation’ in the name of Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel in Telangana. On the other hand in Gujarat, the same Patel statue is called the ‘Statue of Equality. Do you want division or unity? Kavitha questioned.
