The first Global Telangana Convention will be held in Dallas from today with the participation of over 5,000 delegates from 55 cities across 35 nations. The Convention, spearheaded by the Telangana Development Forum (TDF), seeks to bring NRIs from Telangana onto a common platform as part of an exercise to evolve Bangaru Telangana and also to enable them to pay their debt to their motherland.

The forum, which has become very active in the subsequent phase of the TRS stir for Statehood to Telangana, seeks to raise donations to be used for the development of farmers who have been caught in a neck-deep crisis.  “Our motive is converting our State into Golden Telangana.
