Union Minister Anupriya Patel appealed Women to use the welfare schemes launched by NDA Government instead of selling their bodies to earn livelihood. She made these comments in support of Centre's Surrogacy Bill which is raising eye-brows.
Anupriya Patel blamed the families of the those women who were forced to sell their bodies for easy money. She rubbished the argument that women are into such practice by choice. She also told Centre is trying to convey the message, 'Selling bodies isn't the only way to earn a Livelihood'. She says Surrogacy has become an illegal industry of $2 billion and poor tribal women are exploited.
Union Cabinet recently gave it nod to the ban on Commercial Surrogacy or Exchange of money for Surrogacy. The new Surrogacy Bill allows only close relatives to be surrogates. It prevents Newly Married Couples, NRIs, Foreigners, Single and Gays from having babies through Surrogacy.

Cleveland: Donald Trump on Thursday formally accepted his party's nomination, the same way he launched his campaign by slamming immigrants and linking them to crime.
Trump did not budge from his combative stance on immigration as he wrapped up the week's Republican National Convention held in Cleveland, Ohio, NBC News reported.
He officially accepted the Republican Party's nomination for president by telling a pumped-up crowd that the nation's security is under threat from immigrants and illegal immigration.
"Nearly 180,000 people with criminal records ordered deported from our country are tonight roaming free to threaten peaceful citizens," NBC News quoted the Manhattan real estate mogul as saying.
Trump's remarks were met with chants of "Build a Wall", which has become one of the slogans of his campaign.
Trump reminded the crowd that on Monday night they heard from three people whose loved ones were victims murdered by immigrants not legally in the country.
"We heard from three parents whose children were killed by illegal immigrants … They are just three brave representatives of many thousands," Trump said.
The billionaire businessman said nothing has affected him more than the time he spent with mothers and fathers "who have lost their children to violence spilling over the border," NBC News said.
Trump also pointed to immigration as the ill that has perpetuated economic malaise in this country.
"Decades of record immigration have produced lower wages and higher unemployment for our citizens, especially for African Americans and Latino workers," Trump said.
He also sold himself as the champion of a downtrodden working class, promising to restore "law and order" and casting himself as a change agent against presumptive Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton.
"I am your voice...Hillary Clinton's message is that things will never change. Never ever." Politico quoted Trump as saying.
"My message is that things have to change and they have to change right now," he added.
He also spoke of spiking crime, "third-world" airports, growing trade deficits, "chaos in our communities," and terrorism on the home front. Abroad, he said the situation was "worse than it has ever been before," Politico reported citing the business magnate.
"This is the legacy of Hillary Clinton: death, destruction, terrorism and weakness...My plan is the exact opposite of the radical and dangerous immigration policy of Hillary Clinton," he said.
"Lock her up!" the crowd burst out repeatedly during Trump's speech and throughout the week.
His speech lasted for 75 minutes, beating out former President Bill Clinton's acceptance speech at his party's convention in 1996.
At the end, Trump and his Vice President nominee Mike Pence were joined by their families on state.
Superstar Krishna used to deliver overemphasized statements during the audio launch functions of Prince Mahesh. He would predict every film of Mahesh as an industry hit. Even then, there were no issues with his statements. Moreover, Krishna maintained the courtesy and respect on stage with his praises on the movies.
Krishna, however, has praised Telangana CM, KCR, exorbitantly today. Krishna hasn't hesitated comparing KCR with ancient emperor Ashoka. Krishna along with his wife Vijaya Nirmala and Naresh participated in 'Haritha Haaram' program at Nanakram Guda, which was initiated by Telangana government.
"We read in history books that Ashoka got his people planted trees on either sides of the roads. And now, we are witnessing KCR making the people participated in plantation like Ashoka," flattered Krishna. A couple of days ago, when KCR allocated the land of 2000 acres to the Film City in Hyderabad, Krishna demanded the Film City should be named as 'KCR Film City'.
Aa Naluguru (The Four Members) are controlling everything in Tollywood is the oft-repeated accusation one hears. Suresh Babu, Allu Aravind, Dil Raju and their gang have been deciding the business in Tollywood.
Although recently new producers have come in big way and the trend has changed. Still, the industry is in the grip of 10 to 15 members.
Post bifurcation of Andhra Pradesh state, some bigwigs tried to develop the industry in Vishakapatnam but in vain. But rumors are that some top producers and heroes are now hobnobbing with the ruling TDP government and trying to grab lands for dead cheap prices in the name of development of film industry in the beautiful Vishakapatnam city.
Already a prominent Telugu daily recently reported that Andhra Pradesh government has given a prime land in Vizag city to the Film Nagar Cultural Center for abysmally low price on lease. This center will also be handled by the same top gang that controls in Hyderabad, say our sources.
Tollywood Actresses have come down heavily on TDP Leadership the other day. While one of them happens to be Nagari MLA RK Roja, The other celebrity in focus is TDP leader Kavitha.
YCP Leader Roja accused TDP Leadership of not giving due respect to women within the party.
At the same time, Kavitha who took part in Harita Haram programme at Gachibowli slammed TDP Leadership for its 'use & throw' policy. 'When TDP was in the Opposition, I used to receive a phone call seeking my presence every time when a dharna was staged. But, I was completely sidelined after forming the Government inspite of offering my services to the party for years,' she alleges.
As per talk in political circles, Kavitha has been looking forward to join TRS party.

Leading English daily 'Times of India's article on TDP's corruption for Krishna Pushkaralu is embarrassing the people of AP. According to the newspaper's report, the TDP is intentionally delaying bidding for tenders for the works to be done in connection with pushkaralu.
The MPs and MLAs are allegedly delaying tenders to sanction the pushkara funds to their near and dear through nominations basis so that they would get their percentage from the funds allotted by the government.
It is being said that the government has allocated Rs.1080 crores of funds for Krishna Pushkaralu. However, due to the delay in inviting tenders, the budget may get doubled so that more corruption is done. As many as 3 ministers, 6 MLAs and an MP have been indulged inKrishna Pushkaralu scam, as per the report of the 'Times of India'.
Their political rivalry is legendary and dates back to several years. However, they also maintain a friendly rapport even though they mostly target each other over several trivial issues related to both the Telugu states.
AP CM Nara Chandrababu Naidu and Telangana CM KCR, who share an and off friendship with each other, are loggerheads once again over the division of High Court between Telangana and Andhra Pradesh.
With KCR exerting pressure on the centre over the division, Babu finally broke his silence and said that he is ready for talks with KCR over the High Court and other long pending issues that are troubling both the states.
"We left everything in Hyderabad and came here, why will we fight over High Court now? I am not in a mood to fight with the Telangana government. The High Court division issue is not in the hands of both the CMs nor the centre. It's in the hands of Supreme Court. They are causing issues over the AP Bhavan as well. The Telangana government and the centre must understand AP's problems," Babu said. -

Ever since Nara Chandrababu Naidu took over the reigns as Andhra Pradesh's chief minister, his major dream has been the construction of Amaravati as a smart capital that is on par with most advanced capital cities in the world.
In the process, Chandrababu's team has reportedly come up with a proposal to build a City Square in Vijayawada center, much on the lines of most European cities. To be built in across 25 acres of land specifically allotted by the state government, the City Square will feature world-class facilities.
The City Square will boast of spacious convention centres, exhibition centres, children parks, gaming zone and many other amenities. Also an iconic tower will be built at the centre of the square.
To make way for the construction of the City Square, the existing PWD grounds, Rythu Bazaar and some part of the government offices and the State guesthouse will be demolished. No wonder, once the square is built, it will be a major tourist attraction to the city. -

Speaking to media persons on this occasion, Mudragada made some shocking allegations against the TDP Government. 'My Family which offered has been feeding so many families over the years got insulted very badly. Within 3 hours after I began fast, Doors of my house have been broken. They used foul language while shifting my wife, son and daughter-in-law to the hospital. No politician's family has faced such an insult. My father was an MLA. I myself served as MLA, MP and Minister. I was treated like an international terrorist in hospital. They didn't allow me to use mobile, even didn't let me access TV & Newspaper. There was no blood in my body & all I have is the saline water. Our family won't celebrate any festivals until god punishes those who were behind it,' he pledged.
Mudragada clarified he doesn't seek any action against the Cops who misbehaved with his family members. He, however, wants to continue the movement for Kapu Reservations till his last breadth. He also apologized to his family, relatives and supporters who faced insults in the past two weeks.

Megastar Chiranjeevi has almost lost his relevance in Andhra Pradesh politics after he merged his Praja Rajyam Party with the Congress a few years ago.
The only political tag that he has now is the Rajya Sabha seat given by the Congress party and once the term ends, there is no way he can sustain in politics.
Chiranjeevi also knows this; and that is why he is trying to protect his identity by returning to film industry. However, the recent agitation by Kapu strongman Mudragada Padmanabham has rekindled his hopes of surviving in politics at least for some more time.
He thought by taking up the Kapu cause, he can get back into limelight and who knows, he might even play a bigger role in AP politics in the coming days.
May be, sensing the potential in Kapu agitation that might unseat TDP president N Chandrababu Naidu from power in the next elections, Andhra Jyothy managing director V Radhakrishna, who is more loyal to Naidu than the king himself, has warned Chiranjeevi.
He said as of now, Chiranjeevi is loved by all sections of people. Though he belongs to Kapu community, he has fans in all the communities and is considered as “Andarivadu.” But, if he takes up the Kapu cause, he will be confined only to that community and lose universal appeal.
“This will only damage the image of Chiranjeevi. If he wants to be a true politician, he should not fight for just one community,” Radhakrishna cautioned.
Kapu Leader Mudragada Padmanabham is likely to withdraw his hunger strike that he launched 12 days ago. It is known that Mudragada has been fasting with the demand to release the 13 arrested kapu leaders with alleged link to Tuni train violence.
Till now ten among the accused got bail. Now it's coming out that three other followers of Kapu leader Akula Ramakrishna, Vaasireddy Yesudas and Nalla Vishnu got bail on Monday. The three people have reportedly granted a conditional bail. Magistrate granted conditional bail and asked them to report to the police station once a week. With this, all the 13 accused in the Tuni incident got bail .Now it is coming out that Mudragada Padmanabham will withdraw his hunger strike.
It is coming out that Kapu ministers from TDP will held discussions tonight with Mudragada and request him to call off his fast.TDP leaders Chinarajappa and Kala Venkat Rao will offer lemon juice to Padmanabham after he agreed to the response of the government.
Mudragada launched his hunger strike 12 days ago demanding the release of all the accused in the Tuni incident. Tension prevailed in East Godavari district today morning after Mudragada's relative Someswara Rao said that the health of both Mudragada and his wife are in danger.

Everybody is aware how megastar Chiranjeevi and former union minister Dasari Narayana Rao do not see eye to eye with each other and whenever there is an occasion, Dasari does not lose an opportunity to take pot shots at the mega family; and Chiranjeevi never forgets to give retorts to the former.
But now, both the Kapu leaders seem to have come to terms, thanks to the fast unto death launched by former minister Mudragada Padmanabham.
On Thursday, Chiranjeevi, along with Dasari and another former union minister M M Pallam Raju called on the fasting leader and expressed solidarity with him.
Later, they spoke in one voice stating that any humiliation to Mudragada amounted to humiliated to the entire community including themselves (Chiranjeevi and Dasari).
