Good to see the CM's message. Republic Day is a time to reflect on our Constitution and the values of our freedom fighters. It's also wonderful to see unsung heroes from fields like animal husbandry and literature getting national recognition through the Padma awards.

While the greetings are appreciated, I hope the "slew of development programmes" mentioned translates to real, on-ground progress for the common people of Telangana. That would be the best tribute to our Republic. Jai Hind.

The Padma awards list this year is fantastic! Dharmendra, Mammootty, Alka Yagnik... legends! And equally proud of our Telugu scientists and doctors who got the Shri. Their work often goes unnoticed. A very proud moment indeed.
