Abstract

The article discusses the contrasting celebrations of September 17, known as Hyderabad Liberation Day by the BJP-led NDA government and as Telangana Praja Palana Dinotsavam (people's governance day) by the Congress government in Telangana. The Central government will hold a large event at Parade Grounds in Secunderabad, featuring a flag hoisting by Defence Minister Rajnath Singh and participation from approximately 1,000 artists and paramilitary troops. In contrast, the Telangana government will celebrate with flag hoisting at various district headquarters and government offices. The article also highlights the historical context of the day, including previous objections from Muslim organizations regarding the celebrations and the BJP's long-standing demand for official recognition of the event. Additionally, a 3D virtual museum themed around the liberation of Hyderabad has been unveiled to provide educational insights into the historical events surrounding this occasion.
