Hyderabad, Oct 22, 2025:
After her suspension from the *Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS), *Kavitha has re-emerged with renewed political vigor, seeking to reclaim her identity as a true *Telangana ideologue. Through her new public movement, *“Jana M Bata”, she aims to reconnect with grassroots activists and reignite the Telangana sentiment that once defined her political journey.
Determined to prove that she remains the rightful heir to the *Telangana movement, Kavitha is building her independent base across the state. Former BRS leaders who felt sidelined within the party are now gravitating toward her camp, seeking recognition and new opportunities. In return, she is meeting them warmly while emphasizing that her movement’s soul lies in *“Telangana’s self-respect.”
Reconnecting with the Telangana Struggle
During the historic Telangana agitation, Kavitha played a key role through her organization Telangana Jagruthi, which mobilized students, intellectuals, and cultural voices. Now, years after BRS came to power, she believes many movement participants were left unrecognized and unfulfilled.
To address this, Kavitha has begun honoring those unsung activists and intellectuals who contributed to the cause but were forgotten by mainstream politics. She has been conducting a series of *meetings with Telangana intellectuals, holding discussions to shape her movement’s ideological framework and policy direction around *Telangana’s unique identity and challenges.
“Jana M Bata” — A People’s Path
Kavitha’s upcoming Jagruthi Jana M Bata campaign, starting October 25, will focus on reviving Telangana’s core issues — from regional injustices to local development gaps. Ahead of the launch, she consulted cultural thinkers and activists to frame key talking points.
For Kavitha, Telangana ideology means questioning injustices faced by local people and resisting exploitation by neighboring states. Sources indicate that her campaign may include sharp criticism of Karnataka and Andhra Pradesh over issues of water sharing and regional imbalance. Political analysts suggest she wants to project the same aggressive Telangana-first stance once shown by KCR during the statehood struggle.
Will Telangana Sentiment Still Work in 2025?
However, experts remain divided. While KCR once successfully harnessed the emotional appeal of Telangana identity to rise to power, some political observers argue that the same sentiment may not resonate as strongly today.
They believe that emotional slogans alone may not work repeatedly in politics. The 2024 general elections already showed that Telangana-centric narratives had limited electoral impact. Even within BRS, leaders admit that while invoking Telangana pride remains symbolic, it hasn’t translated into major victories recently.
Yet, Kavitha’s re-entry — with a focus on Telangana’s forgotten roots — signals her intent to build a new, emotion-driven political narrative, separate from her party’s traditional path.
