Speaking at an irrigation engineers conference, Harish Rao demanded prompt action from the engineers towards the farmers' water woes.

Nearly 600 app-based taxis have been impounded by the enforcement wing of the Transport Department for using surge pricing despite a ban, an official said.
“Out of the 591 taxis impounded, 400 belong to a controversial big player whose drivers have been involved in crimes against commuters,” said an official, adding that checking surge-pricing was proving to be a big challenge for the transport department due to its limited resources.
During the action against app-based cabs and private buses between May 1-26, enforcement teams also caught vehicles from other states which were running as taxis in Delhi.
Surge pricing was banned by Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal during the odd-even scheme last month when commuters complained of exploitation by the app-based aggregators.
“Over 60 teams of the enforcement wing were deployed during the drive. The focus of the drive was around inter-state bus terminals and Ring Road,” said an official.
During the drive, the Transport Department also penalised 166 contract buses for violating permit conditions during focused action on buses between May 13-24.
“Many of the buses impounded by us were holding national permit but these were functioning like stage carriages and picking up passengers from different points and ferrying them to NCR towns. This is not permitted under the rules,” he said.
On disciplining app-based cab aggregators, an official said a major app-based taxi operator recently assured the Delhi government that it would follow the rates set by the Delhi government yet its cabs were found collecting surge price from commuters.
“The company even claims that the per km rate it charges is less than the rate fixed by the government,” said the official.
The action against cab aggregators and contract buses comes close to the proposed rollout app based premium buses in the city from June 1. Registration of bus aggregators is likely to begin in the first week of next month, while the premium buses would hit the road by mid-June.
The proposal has run into trouble with Lieutenant Governor Najeeb Jung showing a red light to it. Jung has sought clarification from the AAP government on the proposal amid reports that his name was illegally used in a notification by Arvind Kejriwal government early this month.
Sources said Jung was also looking into allegations that there was an attempt to favour a particular aggregator in the premium bus scheme.
According to Transport Minister Gopal Rai, the introduction of app-based buses will encourage car users to switch to air-conditioned buses, with facilities like app-based seat booking, GPS tracking, availability of free WiFi and CCTV monitoring.
Private passenger aggregators with a minimum of 50 buses can register under the scheme, recently notified by the government. Fine ranging from Rs 2,500-5,000 would be imposed on app-based bus aggregators if their vehicle’s staff ferries commuters without advance ticked booked through app.
Rai has made it clear that the fares of premium buses will not be regulated or subsidised by the government.

A letter, which is gossiped to have been written by Telangana exhibitors (owners of film theaters) of 'Brahmotsavam' to Telangana State Film Chamber of Commerce (TSFCC), is doing rounds in social media. The exhibitors pleaded the TSFCC to get them provided compensation from the film's producers, hero and the director. The details of the letter are given below.
"Mahesh Babu starrer 'Brahmotsvam', produced by PVP banner, under Srikanth Addala's direction, got released on May 20. The film's makers got the prices equal to 'Srimanthudu's shares as minimum guarantee (MG) from the exhibitors. This is the worst ever flop among Mahesh's films. This film is even worse than a TV serial. As you know, this is a bitter truth. As such we are requesting TSFCC to do proper justice to us through Mahesh, Srikanth Addala and PVP. When 'Baba' film suffered with losses, honourable Rajinikanth garu compensated the losses to exhibitors. We suffered 80 naya paise per a rupee (80%) loss with 'Brahmotsavam'. Hence, you are requested to discuss the issue with Abhishek Pictures, PVP and Srikanth Addala to do justice to us......from the exhibitors of 'Brahmotsavam', Telangana."
It remains to be seen the response of TSFCC and 'Brahmotsavam's production team with the letter from exhibitors.
Washington: Mirror, Mirror on the wall, who is the most presidential of them all? That's the question American voters are asking as they size up the three survivors in the White House race.
Supporters of "Dodging Donald" Trump, as critics call the Republican now sitting pretty with magical 1,237 delegates to lock the party nomination, have eyes only for the Manhattan mogul.
Diehard backers of mathematically-challenged "Crazy Bernie" Sanders, as the billionaire has dubbed him, have ears only for the self-styled Democratic socialist.
And "Clearance Merchandise," as a columnist described the Democratic frontrunner or "Crooked Hillary" Clinton, as Trump has branded her, too has her own legion of defenders of the faith. Poor Hillary, she thought her coronation as the Democratic nominee was a done deal despite an annoying Bernie snapping at her heels to the chagrin of the party establishment.
Then, a State Department independent watchdog's scathing report on Clinton's use of a private server at home for official work as secretary of state sent her "drowning in emails" as the New York Times put it.
A gloating Trump "Celebrating 1,237!" was quick to rub it in. The report was "not good" for "Crooked Hillary." It was "devastating", said the master of a "fifth grade" speech.
Bernie supporters too saw in a parallel FBI probe into Clinton emails an "answer to their prayers" as the Times put it, as the former first lady's lead in the prized June 7 California primary quickly evaporated.
And when Senator Elizabeth Warren, a key supporter, took up cudgels on her behalf to suggest Trump was "drooling over the housing crisis", he dismissed her as a Clinton "Pocahontas" and again changed the conversation.
When the media questioned him about an "offensive" reference to a Native American notable for her association with the colonial settlement at Jamestown, Virginia, in the 17th century, an unapologetic Trump quipped: "Oh, I am sorry! But Warren has a big mouth."
Going on late night comic Jimmy Kimmel's show, Trump also promptly accepted a suggestion to debate Sanders before the California primary.
"I would love to do that" in a massive arena, said the business mogul provided $10-15 million was raised for a charity with the promise of huge ratings for the host channel.
Then Sanders, who's peeved that Hillary Clinton was backing out of a planned Democratic debate, jumped on the offer. "Game on," he tweeted and boasted if Trump did not chicken out, the billionaire would be toast.
As the idea of what Democratic media strategist Brad Bannon called a "complete circus," of a novel inter-party debate, gathered steam, Trump did walk back.
He first called it a "joke" and then said now that he had become the Republican top dog it would be "inappropriate" for him to debate the straggling Democrat.
Meanwhile, as Trump completed the "hostile takeover" of the Republican party with his magic 1,237, a vanquished "Little Marco" Rubio came out of hiding with an offer to release his pledged delegates "to be helpful" to Trump's campaign.
Hours later, Trump who once called Rubio a "joke," a "choker," and a "dishonest lightweight" who "couldn't get elected dog catcher in Florida," graciously pushed him to re-run for the Senate. "Important to keep the MAJORITY. Run Marco!" he tweeted.
And as the three White House contenders called each other liars and worse and unqualified to be the president, the Washington Times offered a novel insight into the making of a president sans pundits and pollsters.
Saying that "size matters", it noted the taller candidate has won the popular vote in more than two-thirds of the elections since 1950.
And by that measure, come November 8, Trump, who stands 6 feet 2 inches to Clinton's 5 feet 4 to 7 inches, according to varied calculations, would win hands down -- big or 'small' as "Rubio" once insinuated. Let "rattled" foreign leaders be forewarned!

Telugu-dubbed Tamil film Bichagadu is surprise winner at the BO. Starring Vijay Anthony, the socio-family drama released with minimum expectations turned out to be sleeper hit in this season.
Producer Chadalavada Srinivas, who has spent a meagre Rs 50 Lakh for the film, too stunned with the record business the film is doing. Trade reports are rife that the movie has grossed over 7 Crore share and expected to do over Rs 10 Crore share in AP, TS in its full run.
What's more? Unique promotional campaign has worked well. Producer Chadalavada has stuck to print media publicity alone and conveniently avoided showcasing the film's trailer on news channels, GECs.
At a time even when star-studded flicks like Vijay's Theri, Suriya's 24 didn't do well as expected, definitely Bichagadu seems to be a game changer.

Finding perfect heroine for Nandamuri Balakrishna has become a big headache to director Krish. His original choices were Anushka and Nayanathara but both of them are busy with their other commitments and have no dates to cater to this movie.
Since “Gauthamiputra Satakarni” is a prestigious movie for both Balakrishna and Krish, Krish is seeking huge call sheets of a heroine. Hence Nayanathara turned down the offer, say the sources.
Finally the team reportedly found that Shriya would be the ideal choice for the role of Satakarni’s wife in the movie. Balakrishna too is said to have given his nod to this choice. Krish has already spoken to her, the sources say.
Shriya has acted with Balakrishna in “Chenna Keshava Reddy” and this would be her second film with him. Shriya still maintains great physique, so even today she is getting offers to play as heroine even though she has been acting in the movie industry for more than 15 years.
Filmmaker Anurag Kashyap has refuted reports that his upcoming production "Udta Punjab", which is based on issue of drug abuse in Punjab, has been banned by the censor board.
There are reports that the Shahid Kapoor-Kareena Kapoor film has failed to get censor board's approval due to excessive swearing and drug consumption.
Kashyap has said the board's examining committee has forwarded the decision to revising committee and hence film is far from being banned.
"For the record ,'Udta Punjab' is not banned. The examining committee has deferred the decision to Revising and due process is on. And due process takes it own time so please abstain for spreading a BAN rumour. There is nothing to speak on the subject as of now," the "Bombay Velvet" director tweeted.
"A film is banned only when examining, revising and FCAT all three refuse certificate. And then you fight it out in Supreme Court," he further wrote.
The Abhishek Chaubey-directed film also stars Alia Bhatt and Diljit Dosanjh and is set to release on June 17.

At least 4 Africans were attacked by a local mob with bricks, bats and iron rods in an urban village in south Delhi’s Mehrauli area on Thursday night. Two of them needed medical treatment.
The mob targeted them as they passed through the same lane, at different time during a half-hour period in Rajpur Khurd village. The attacks come six days after a Congolese French language teacher was bludgeoned to death on a south Delhi street. “None of the African nationals agreed to give a complaint. However, the local police acting on their own have registered criminal cases,” said a senior police officer.
The victims told DH that racist slurs were hurled at them, but police denied any racist angle. “The accused involved in the incidents have been identified and efforts are on to arrest them soon,” said a senior police officer. The victims charged that their attackers told them to “go back to Africa”. They also used slurs like ‘habshi’.
One of the victims is Kenneth, 27, a Nigerian who sings gospels at a local church.
He told DH that around 10.45 pm, he was returning home from a church meeting with his wife and their 4 month-old-son in his car when a mob of local residents blocked his path. “As I was driving back home, a group of 15-20 people with iron rods, bricks and cricket bats in their hands asked me to stop the car,” said Kenneth.
As he stopped a few metres away from the group, the men shouted: “You African baba come down,” asking him to get out of the car.
Kenneth initially didn’t open the car door, but then they started banging on it. One of them hit the back windshield with a heavy object. The moment Kenneth stepped out, he was hit with an iron rod on the shoulder and the face. “The mob attacked every African who passed through the lane between 10.30 pm to 11 pm.
We asked help from the locals, but no one came forward,” Shamira, another victim who is an Ugandan national, told DH. “I was also beaten up in the melee. However I told them that I was also an Indian and spoke to them in Hindi. They let me go, but chased Shamira,” said Sonia, Shamira’s friend.

Popular comedian cum character artiste Posani Krishna Murali had a rather daunting experience thanks to an abusive stalker named Naresh who repeatedly called his mobile demanding money and issuing threats.
Posani filed a police complaint and said that the abuser has been calling him since a long time asking for money. When Posani asked him how can he give money to a stranger, the stalker reportedly said that he too works in the film industry.
Upon receiving Posani's complaint, cops traced out Naresh and identified him as Lakshmi Narayana, a production manager in Tollywood. Apparently, Naresh was in dire need of money and took to extortion to earn quick bucks.
"When Posani didn't oblige Naresh's requests initially and disconnected his calls, Naresh kept on sending abusive and threatening messages," said the SR Nagar police. -

After Rajinikanth and Kamal Haasan had decided long ago not to act together, they made a vow saying that if at all they decide to work together once again, the movie will be produced by either of the two.
So, this is the actual reason for Kamal rejecting Robo 2.0. However, it is not for the reason that he might face difficulties after taking up a negative character at this stage of his career, as speculated in media.
Bollywood action hero Akshay Kumar is essaying the negative role in Robo 2.0 that is being made under Lyke productions. Amy Jackson is leading lady in the science fiction film.
One thing is clear from Kamal's declaration that, a multistarrer is definitely on with Rajinikanth. Meanwhile, Kamal is gearing up to start Sabhash Naidu. -

While people from west are fighting against body shaming, wearing a bikini turned a crime for an actress, who expressed her anguish on people cursing over her bikini pics. Sonarika Bhadoria played the role of Goddess Parvathi in a tele serial Devon Ke Dev Mahadev.
And when she posted few pictures of herself in Bikini and flaunting her curvy body, people started questions like 'how can a goddess don a bikini' and cursing her as they could not tolerate a girl playing goddess Parvathi in bikini. The actress had to take down those pictures after a while and she came down heavily on her body-shamers. Saying she is not yet that mature to handle this sort of negativity, Sonarika left a middle finger icon for detractors and body shamers.
The other day it was Fardeen Khan who was body shamed and the former actor shot back with some strong yet decent things to say. Not just Fardeen or Sonarika, many celebrities from Bollywood are being body shamed and few give it back.
Now Sonarika uploaded her bikini pictures again and by this time, the body-shamers must have understood that their cursing or cussing gets boomeranged. -

A CCTV video from a store shows Bollywood actor Riteish Deshmukh shoplifting and this video has gone viral with #ChorInStore. Few rich people too have this habit of stealing things even when they can afford to buy them, they are Kleptomaniac. But Riteish is not one of them, but it is his attempt to promote his upcoming film 'Housefull 3'.
This is one of those cheap stunts to keep his film on news, and he won at it. The other day he flaunted his arrogance and anger when he splashed a glass of water at a radio jockey when his co-star Lisa Haydon's was promoting the film at a radio studio, a publicity stunt indeed. Another actor Arjun Kapoor too tried promoting his Ki and Ka, by giving a dummy tight slap to RJ at a studio. -

Bollywood has yet another technique of promoting love stories. A blow the gossip bubbles using lead pair names for affairs and trying to make things interesting as the actors too act accordingly. They hang around until the movie hits the screen and call it ta-ta after the release with a ugly spat, an attempt to cash on audience curiosity to watch the romance of 'so-called real lovers'.
Film promotion sure should go by innovative thoughts, but these kind of stooping down acts are not going to last long. An unfortunate or unexpected incident each day from the same set of actors whose movie is waiting for release, explains itself as a publicity stunt. These grab attention for the first time and look cheap from the next. -
