The RIC story: How Raghuram Ananthoj is making India fall in love with books
HYDERABAD: In classrooms across India, where academic marks often dominate discussions, a different movement is quietly gathering pace. Former Ranji cricketer from Hyderabad, Raghuram Ananthoj, is leading an initiative that is shifting focus from exam scores to the power of reading for pleasure. Through his brainchild, the Read India Celebration (RIC), and a series of leadership workshops, Raghuram encourages students to go beyond textbooks, helping them develop critical thinking and problem-solving abilities along the way. Launched in 2015 after being conceived a year earlier, RIC started its journey in Telugu-speaking states, where it has drawn thousands of students to explore non-academic books. What began as a regional programme has now spread across the country. It's now in its tenth year and has witnessed participation from all Indian states, reaching students as far as the USA, Canada, and West Asia. The message is simple: reading beyond textbooks is changing lives. Raghuram explains how RIC works. 'At the heart of it is a simple exercise. Students read a non-academic book or story and submit a summary of what they learn, along with a creative solution to a real-world problem. This builds critical thinking and innovation. I started with leadership sessions and realised many people don't know their strengths. That's when I began experimenting with reading as a tool for personal growth. Reading is closely linked to creativity and problem-solving.'

Talliki Vandanam has brought smile to every mother
Jaggaiahpet (NTR District): KDCC Bank Chairman and TDP NTR district president Nettem Raghuram asserted that the scheme, under the TDP-led coalition government, is bringing 'smiles to every mother's face,' while strongly condemning what he termed a 'misinformation campaign' by the YSRCP. Addressing the media at his residence on Tuesday, Raghuram vehemently refuted allegations that Rs 2,000 is being siphoned off by Minister Nara Lokesh, calling them 'false and malicious.' He questioned the YSRCP's previous implementation, where 'only Rs 13,000 was given.' 'So where did the rest of the money go?' In contrast, Raghuram stated that the coalition government is benefiting 67.27 lakh students, a significant increase from the YSRCP's 42 lakh beneficiaries. The expanded scheme now includes students entering Grade 1 and Intermediate 1st year, covering nearly 11 lakh more beneficiaries. He reiterated that 'whether a family has one child or four – each child's mother receives the benefit,' contrasting it with Jagan's alleged failure to deliver on a promise of free education from KG to PG, which he claimed 'failed 12 lakh students from poor and minority backgrounds.' Mullangi Ramakrishna Reddy, Meka Venkateswarlu, Talluri Venkateswarlu, Ginjupalli Ramesh, Katta Venkata Narasimharao, Sheikh Anwar, Kotaru Prasad, Innamuri Raju, and others were present.
