    Let me begin with apologising to Kiran Bedi. We the corrupt people of Andhra Pradesh have elected 17 MLAs and one MP belonging to two parties that you perhaps see as “corrupt”. A majority of them to the YSR Congress, whose leader Jaganmohan Reddy is in judicial custody in a...

    By the time polling ended at 5 pm today, it was interesting to see how the Congress and the Telugu Desam were speaking in one language. To explain why the majority of the seats look set to go into Jaganmohan Reddy’s pocket. While senior Congress MLA Anam Vivekananda Reddy described...

    Andhra Pradesh’s top cop Dinesh Reddy is candid enough to admit that the magnitude of the unaccounted for money seized during the campaign period in these byelections has shocked him. While the Andhra Pradesh police confiscated some 30 crores worth of cash and jewellery, the Election Commission through its officers...

    The issue with tournaments just before the Olympics is that either top players skip them or play very carefully to avoid any injury. Pretty much the case at the Thailand Open, where none of the four top Chinese players took the field, making Saina Nehwal the top seeded player at...

    This news did not feature on any TV news channel, certainly not in Delhi. Television reporters did not ask aam janta to react to this new Rajya Sabha MP. And no, it did not trend on Twitter either. Obviously, I am not talking of Sachin Tendulkar, whose oath-taking today was...

    The knives are out in the sickle and hammer party. Former chief minister V S Achuthanandan, for long at the receiving end of the Pinarayi Vijayan-led faction within the Kerala CPI(M), seems to have decided to take the bull by the horns. His visit to slain Revolutionary Marxist Party leader...

    Pardon this unparliamentary phrase but if sources in the CBI are to be believed, the s*** from Bellary has hit the ceiling in Hyderabad. The Andhra Pradesh High court Chief Justice Madan Lokur on his last but one day in office suspended First Additional Special Judge for CBI cases, T...
