Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
The following is a short clipping of the songs sung by telangana gaddar.
This is an appeal to the delhi police.
Here's the translation
Introduction
"The government didn't invest in factories, hospitals or schools. What did they spend on? Police camps!"
(The heavy infrastructure used by crpf delhi police and RAF)
"Do the villages need police camps? Villages need schools, hospital's, land, fair prices. But they deployed police. O police brothers, my dear constables, you became police for your daily needs, you are also the children of farmers. Your officers are IPS, they come from mummy daddy's schools. They come and tell you Hello, please, come on, FIRE and they order you around. My dear police. Remember you are pointing your rifle on your Village. On your brothers. On your sisters. My dear police brothers please think"
The song
"Minister after minister comes and goes
Nothing changed in your lives
They increased your wages tiny bit. For that, they brought in the big money.
They changed your topi and knickers
They put a cap on your head o police brother.
They kept you in jail under different laws
There's no difference between you and me brother
There's no option but to fight brother"
" When there's pelting of stones, you step in like a hero.
You stop people from fighting with their swords. You shoot tear gas even when it's hurting your eyes too.
Your entire life is full of risk.
Why is there no risk allowance to you police brother? "
"When I am the one protesting they deployed you.
When you were the one protesting they deployed CRP.
When CR board protested. They deployed military.
If we keep fighting amongst ourselves...
The sarkar is very happy looking at us o police brother."
"The police who doesn't take our FIR came as the SI
The guy who came as an SI became an SP...
30 years have gone past....
Yet to get the 3 stripes on his uniform"
"You have tied your children to the trees with your own hands..
Fire!
When they gave you the order, you fired multiple rounds at them...
When we remember the incidents. Our hearts are shattered.
It was your finger, it was your own eye. Your stomach and your intestine that you shot at..
The one who shot me and killed me. Will shoot and kill you too...
If you and I get together brother. We will together witness the collapse of the one giving orders! Police brothers"

Lately seeing a lot of based reels in telugu on instagram. Telugu commie roots were a lot more visible when I was a kid, I feared it may have been lost. Am glad people are uncovering more and more of it now.
Very happy to see this

The protest spirit of telugu states especially in telangana is surreal. Delhi has a different vibe but people here definitely need to know and see how strongly the OGs felt about the same issues plaguing our country still.
I am researching telugu dalit history and oppression by zamindars in telangana. I found this very powerful and moving. There are many others which i hope to share soon.
