The city of pearls and Minarets Hyderabad has turned Pink. You can call it as pink city till Sunday night. It is all decked up for the event. Where ever you see it is jubilation with pink flags and buntings, posters, banners and all other publicity material.
Outsiders think that it is election time. It is looking as if the elections have already come. All roads in the state lead to Hyderabad. People from 31 districts have started coming to Hyderabad for the September 2 meeting. They want to thank KCR who is giving everything for them.
But mobilising about 25 lakh people is not easy. Telangana Bapu K Chandrasekhar Rao the TRS supremo wants to do that and create history. So far no one could do this in the country. If not exactly 25 lakh, it will be more than 20 lakh, there should be no doubt about this. The Ministers have been instructed to follow this and they, in turn, would suggest the MLAs to mobilise the crowd.
The place is Ibrahimpatnam and is connected to the outer ring road whereby the traffic flow in the city will not be disturbed. The court has given the green signal to the meeting. There will be a separate route for the meeting vehicles. parking place is also perfect. It will not be lorries for transporting the people like earlier times. The public would come from the villages and cities on their own in small vehicles mostly. Some people might as well hire the RTC buses.
To show that the farmers have come in large numbers, tractors would be used for the transport from many nearby villages. Some people are planning to go on the traditional bullock carts as well. The tractors have been decorated with pink tops and KCR photos.
The traffic police are working on a strategy to see that the inlet and outlet for the meeting are clear. The public is scheduled to flow from the noon and after the meeting, they would go away in the night and that would not disturb the regular traffic at all. 1600 acres and 25 lakh people are the target.
The Women may have a separate enclosure in the front. LED screens are being used so that the people can see the leaders and KCR properly. KCR has suggested that the last man must also hear him properly and that there should be no chaos and confusion in the sound systems.
It is like an entrance test to the MLAs in mobilising the crowd. Ministers Harish Rao, KTR, Mayor Bonthu Ram Mohan, Minister Mahendar Reddy, Danam Nagendar, Minister Srinivas Yadav and others are strategising the ways and means to make the meeting a grand success. The city and other districts will also be decked up for the event.
The state will look like as if we painted it in Pink.All roads lead to Kongara Kalan via Hyderabad.
