Time has come for the three communities to play the lead role.
Jana Sena Party President K. Pawan Kalyan on Saturday appealed to Kapu, Telaga and Ontari community leaders and elders to unite and come out to lead the battle against YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) by learning the lessons from the way the Kapu movement was scuttled in recent years.
Addressing a public meeting at Hukumpet near Rajamahendravaram city on Saturday, Mr. Pawan Kalyan said the Kapu movement was undermined after 2014 by those who perceived a threat from the community. The Kapus, Telaga and Ontari communities should shoulder the responsibility to thwart the YSRCP's designs now, he exhorted.
Prior to the public meeting, Mr. Pawan Kalyan launched his party's campaign against bad roads in the State, by helping his followers in patch work on a road at Hukumpet as part of 'Sramadanam'.

Microplastics, especially nylon fibres, are present in Chennai’s beach sediments in relatively low abundance, but low overall microplastic abundance does not necessarily imply low ecological risk. Even small particles can cause long-term ecological damage by affecting marine life, moving up the food chain, and eventually impacting human health through contaminated seafood.
