Yeah, that’s our staple food. Locally grown and that’s what we used to eat. 

Andhrollaki laavu biyyam pandutadi kabatti roju ade tintaru…meeru timnaru kabatti duniya antha tinalante pattukuni tantaru….no respect to regional preferences. Anduke odakottinam mee NTR ni…

Local food preferences ni own gains kosam maarce sannasi evadanna vunnada ante adi mee Baboru ae 

Avi rich ppl and doralu ki matrame ekkuva thinevallu..

limited production, limited supply valla there were starvation deaths across the country.. especially in some of the poor areas of AP (north Andhra, Seema and TG).. it was a great idea at that time as food production picked up and India stopped importing food grains.. FCI was building godowns across the country… the govt went through lot of difficulties to implement the scheme.. even the next kotla/nedurumalli govts continued that scheme.. baboru stop chesaru kani, malli ysr and even kcr implemented that scheme.. 

Ma relatives di ration shop undedi.. ee 2/5 Rs rice kosam janaalu full queue undedi.. they used to hate it as it was lot of work for them..

Looks like you have no idea about Telangana rural society.

Jonnalu, Saddalu, Ragulu are three main staple crops. No one used to buy them because families used to sow after the first rain. This crop is not for sale because there was no demand, and mostly used for personal consumption. Even today, in plateau interior parts, millets is the first crop that is sown after the first rain. This is sow and forget crop, no water or fertilizer is needed and crop time is 3 months. Saddula Bathukamma ani antaru kada, harvest first offering tho saddula bathukamma start avutadi…

Usual diet pattern : before 90’s, morning breakfast used to be millets and yoghurt drink with a chilli. People used to ear rice for lunch. Not the Andhra rice but fine rice and for dinner, usually mikkets again with little bit of rice. Jonna rottelu, Sadda Rottelu, Raagi mudha, Salla (butter milk). 

More or less, majority of plateau population staple diets lo majority milkets ae vundevi. Even today, Vidharba, Raichur, Gukvarga areas la rice kante ekuva millets consumption aw vuntadi.

Millets are super foods, Poor man’s favourite food. Rich and Dora’s food anukunte porapate…

Ie 2 Rs scheme changed the pattern as it is easy to cook and cheap. Even today, ration shops la subsidized rice gets sold out, as a whole parallel economy runs on PDS rice.

not really. diabetes prevalent only since 30 years. it was only rich people disease before who used to get type 2 diabetes.. before 30 years, we used to eat milelts and walk daily atleast 15 miles as part of life and was fit. now we don't do that and consume so much carbohydrates leading to diabetes.

That RaKa Lokam is telugu version of Phalki Sharma's FirstPost with Nationalistic Agenda.

Nammatam nammakapovatam aneedhi bomma-borusu game laantidhi..

either you agree to it or disagree strongly..

No need to worry about Truth.

Yes Famines are one of the reason during British rule, some are natural and some caused by British it might have amplified biological "Thin Fat Phenotype".  But it is not the sole variable for current diabetes crisis, and there is the "thrifty genotype" which existed before British. last 50 years urbanization, less activity and high calorie particularly refined carb diet are main reasons for the current Diabetic crisis. We consume more carbs compared to fibre, protein and less activity.

Even people without "Thin-fat Phenotype" are also susceptible to Diabetes with high calorie diets and less activity. If you observe the International diabetic trend you will understand. 

PIcha lite bro... maligning everything from Islamic invasion to British Empire to Gandhi family to Nehru Family...

evarini vodilipettadhu mana Modi media...

Nehru ki Galthi, British 45T loot, Gandhi family...these are the buss words for BJP media.

Very true. My great grandfathers cousins settled in telangana long ago. So even when my dad was kid he said his far off cousins did not eat rice everyday. During my great grandfathers era it seems ample availability of rice was limited to krishna, guntur, prakasam, nellore. Other parts used to eat millets as rice was not even available or very hard to get.

I did not even know that, I thought all telugu people used to eat rice/biryani/pulao all the time since beginning of time. Lot of ppl still dont know that, they think telugu ppl ante rice ani.
