I Am Telangana: The Story of Telangana - From Stone and Song to Struggle Rebirth

I Am Telangana is a book in which the land narrates its own history, speaking in its own voice.The book journeys back to the time of ancient human settlements and traces the story forward to modern-day Telangana, India's youngest state, formed in 2014. It presents documented history blended with lived experience, allowing the land itself to remember and reflect.Moving through stone and rivers, the era of Hyderabad State, the pain of merger and neglect, decades of protest and sacrifice, and the long struggle that culminated in statehood, the narrative captures Telangana's enduring spirit. The book also reflects on the state's growth, challenges, and evolving identity in the years that followed.Written in clear and evocative prose, this book will appeal to readers interested in Indian history, regional identity, social movements, and contemporary Telangana.
