Hyderabad, June 10 (Hydnow): TRS MLC Kalvakuntla Kavitha said the BJP government should stop its publicity campaign against women empowerment and disclose facts to the nation.
Speaking to the media here on Friday, the MLC, who is often vocal about women’s issues, said that the BJP government at the Centre had done nothing to the welfare of women in the country but it was misleading them with false publicity.
The TRS MLC also demanded the union government to under an apology to Anganwadi workers for slashing their budget by 50 percent.
“Anganwadi workers have protected the village people from COVID-19 pandemic at the cost of their lives and they worked hard to increase nutrition levels among the lacted mothers and children. But, the Modi government has slashed their allocated budget by ignoring their services,” she criticised.
Kavitha asked the Union government to address the spiralling prices of commodities, which directly affects lower middle class women in the country. (Hydnow)

Chhatriwali Movie Review: Rakul Preet Singh’s film is informative but lags in bits
I could never wrap my head around Bollywood’s obsession with continuously addressing condom as a chhatri or an umbrella. Not only it’s cringe to hear repeatedly but also, it somewhere defeats the whole purpose with which films around these subjects are made. Moreover, picking a taboo subject and making a film on it can turn out to be quite risky if you don’t stick to the agenda and beat around the bush. Thankfully, Rakul Preet Singh’s Chhatriwali, directed by Tejas Prabhaa Vijay Deoskar, doesn’t digress much, and follows a crisp screenplay. There are some flaws here and there, but with all the humour and lighter moments, they can be somewhat overlooked.
