Need to protect Telugu

Srirangam Foundation screened a short film titled ‘Desha Bhashalandhu Telugu Lessa’ at Prasads Labs on Sunday. Advisor to Government of Telangana KV Ramana Chary launched the film and after watching it he said, “Many more films like this should be made.

Both the Telugu-speaking States are not giving importance to the language and because of this its usage is declining. There is an urgent need to protect Telugu.”

Satyam Srirangam, chairman, Srirangam Foundation; Samudrala Venugopalachari, chairman of the event, ‘Pellichoopulu’ producer Raj Kandukuri, Devagya Sharma and Kishore Swami attended the event.
