History of Alive Legend Tippana Siddulu's Saparate Telangana Freedom movement.

History of Alive Legend Tippana Siddulu's Saparate Telangana Freedom movement.

Tippana Siddhu worked as a lecturer in Bhadrachalam Degree College and retired, he is the One of the Founding Pillars of the 1969 Separate Telangana Movement.

It is no exaggeration to say that Tippana Siddulu was a wave in the first generation of the separate Telangana movement. He stands as one of the founder figures of the 1969 agitation. While studying in his second year of B.A. at the University Arts & Science College,Subedari(O. U) in Warangal, he also underwent NCC training.
In 1969, he was elected as the College General Secretary. As the movement for a separate state intensified daily, a historic meeting was organized at the Reddy Hostel in Abids, Hyderabad, to further strengthen the agitation. This meeting was attended by prominent figures such as Professor Ravada Satyanarayana, Sadalakshmi, Marri Chenna Reddy, Hayagrivachari, T. Purushotham Rao, Madan Mohan, Dr. Gopala Rao, Manikya Rao, Anjaiah, Ashiem and Nayani Narasimha Reddy. When Tippana Siddulu was given the opportunity to speak at this gathering, he voiced his opinions with a powerful tone regarding the injustices being meeted out to Telangana and the violation of Mulki Rules.
Subsequently, the leadership of the movement was handed over to Marri Chenna Reddy. Due to his active participation, Tippana Siddulu was arrested under Section 107 and detained in Warangal Jail twice for 15 days each. Furthermore, he was imprisoned under the PD Act (Preventive Detention) along with leaders like Purushotham Rao and Hayagrivachari. Observing an incident at the Warangal college during the movement, the then Principal and Special Officer, Professor Venkataramaiah, remarked, "I have read about Alluri Sitarama Raju in the independence struggle, but now I am amazed to witness your courage firsthand." The fact that Chenna Reddy chose Siddulu to preside over public meetings in places like Mulugu and Polampeta during the 1969 movement speaks volumes about his stature.
In that era, although many high-ranking positions came his way, he renounced them as if they were mere blades of grass. Chenna Reddy once remarked, "If Siddulu is cast out of the movement and falls on a rock, he will rub that rock and create water," illustrating the professor's indomitable spirit. It remains to be seen how the current generation of Telangana will honor and repay its debt to this 80-year-old first-generation warrior.
