Even after the floods, stench and sludge is all that remains of the lake
Lakes turning violent against the encroaching residents was the dominant narrative during October floods which played havoc with the lives of city residents. A few lakes, however, exacted their revenge by remaining stoical!

HYDERABAD: The Congress party has been facing an existential crisis in the state of Telangana, ever since the bifurcation of the State in 2014. Now after the GHMC Elections 2020 debacle, the fate of the party in the city of Hyderabad is slowly becoming questionable.
Even as senior leaders in the party are eyeing either TRS or the BJP, which is currently in the limelight to secure their political careers, the latest news now is that senior leader and the city Congress unit president, Anjan Kumar Yadav has resigned from the party. It is reported that Anjan Kumar resigned, as he is keen in entering the Telangana Pradesh Congress Committee (TPCC) President race. However, analysts feel that the real reason was that he was sidelined from the talks during the selection of GHMC candidates. On the other hand, it is also believed that his son Anil Kumar, who is also the National Secretary of the Youth Congress, was not given due prominence.
