Summary:
A+ A-Hyderabad: Senior journalist and editor of Veekshanam, Telugu monthly journal of political economy and society is implicated in a false case under various sections of Indian Penal Code (IPC), the Unlawful Activities Prevention Act (UAPA) and the Telangana Public Security Act, by Telangana Police on behalf of the Telangana government. This action smacks of not only a vindictive attitude, but also appears ridiculous with blatant lies and fabrications. Since then he is not member of any organization and running his own monthly journal full time. Thus today’s false case against its editor is a part of the Telangana government’s attempt to crush all dissenting voices under iron heel. We demand the government to immediately withdraw this false case against the editor of Veekshanam and desist from the vindictive attitude against all the journalists and intellectuals who hold different opinions.
