Exactly fourteen years have passed, and the memories of december 9, 2009, are evoking a myriad of thoughts. Reflecting on the present, one cannot help but ponder the significance of the timing and the messages conveyed by recent developments. The following questions arise: What is the current situation indicating? Why is this happening now? How should kcr and his cohorts respond? 

Does the pink force, symbolic of Telangana's political movement, truly grasp the essence of unfolding events? On december 9, 2009, kcr embarked on a fast-unto-death in Nizam's Institute of Medical Sciences, a pivotal moment that ignited the telangana movement. The emotional fervour he generated not only galvanized telangana but also compelled the distant government in delhi to acquiesce to the formation of the telangana state.


Fourteen years later, on the same date, kcr finds himself in a hospital bed, recovering from hip replacement surgery. The contrast is striking—where telangana achieved an unexpected victory in the struggle for statehood, the recent election results have dealt an unexpected blow to the Congress.


Observers are intrigued by the parallels and divergences between the events of then and now. The unfolding narrative prompts contemplation on the nuances of time and the need for a deliberate and strategic approach to navigating the current circumstances.
