This book is an attempt to present the inside story of the
Telangana movement that developed due to historical reasons. The
movement, in this work, has brought forward the Telangana lower
class's response to the established cultural hegemony of the Andhra
linguistic elite and affluent agrarian communities who, in their
perception, monopolized the political power and economic resources.
The movement voices the democratic yearnings of service castes,
artisans, Dalits and nomads who through their instant association
with the movement expressed aspirations for their due share in
political power and administrative structure. The leadership that
has come from the regional elite has, however, articulated only the
reasons of 'self-respect and regional autonomy'. This work brings
out the two-fold character in the movement. It also gives insights
into the possible need of remaking states in India in the interest
of the inclusion of these social groups in political structures so
that democracy might further percolate downwards. This book is
co-published with Aakar Books. Print edition not for sale in South
Asia (India, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Bangladesh, Pakistan and Bhutan)
