Respect cultures of all regions: Pawan Kalyan
Hyderabad, Jan 23 (IANS) Popular actor and Jana Sena Party chief Pawan Kalyan on Tuesday called for respecting cultures and languages of all regions, saying this is a must to keep the nation united.
On the second day of his maiden political march in Telangana, he addressed the party workers in Karimnagar town.
He said if the sentiments of a region were not respected, it might result in public anger which in turn endangered national integration.
Stating that Andhra Pradesh and Telangana were no different, the actor-politician said that in both the states his party would do responsible politics.
“Andhra and Telangana are not different. I am ready to give my blood for Telangana,” he said.
Reiterating that he will not criticise other parties just for the sake of criticism, he said the Jana Sena would study the people’s problems and try to resolve them by bringing them to the notice of the respective governments.
“If the problems remain unresolved, then we will come out on the streets but that will be the last resort,” the actor said amid thunderous applause from his fans.
Pawan said if Andhra Pradesh had given birth to him, Telangana had given him a new life. “That is the reason I am launching my political journey from here,” he said.
At Kondagattu in Jagtiyal district, Pawan on Monday launched the ‘praja yatra’ after worshiping at a local temple.
It was in this town that he had a narrow escape when a high-tension wire fell on him during campaigning in the 2009 elections. He was then campaigning for Praja Rajyam, the party floated by his elder brother Chiranjeevi.
Pawan said he always respected the culture and traditions of Telangana in his films.
Defending his praise for Telangana Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao, the actor said Rao played a key role in the formation of separate Telangana and was also trying to solve people’s problems. He said he would differ with Rao when required.
Pawan urged the youth to work to root out corruption.
Earlier, a large number of fans gathered outside the hotel where the actor stayed for the night. Police and his private security personnel had a tough time in controlling the crowd.
The Jana Sena chief will continue his ‘yatra’ in Telangana on Wednesday. He plans to launch the ‘yatra’ in Andhra Pradesh on January 27.
He has announced his party will contest the 2019 elections in both the Telugu states.

International online casino Casino Days has published a report sharing their internal data on what types and brands of devices are used to play on the platform by users from the South Asian region.
Such aggregate data analyses allow the operator to optimise their website for the brands and models of devices people are actually using.
The insights gained through the research also help Casino Days tailor their services based on the better understanding of their clients and their needs.
Desktops and Tablets Lose the Battle vs Mobile
The primary data samples analysed by Casino Days reveal that mobile connections dominate the market in South Asia and are responsible for a whopping 96.6% of gaming sessions, while computers and tablets have negligible shares of 2.9% and 0.5% respectively.
The authors of the study point out that historically, playing online casino was exclusively done on computers, and attribute thе major shift to mobile that has unfolded over time to the wide spread of cheaper smartphones and mobile data plans in South Asia.
“Some of the reasons behind this massive difference in device type are affordability, technical advantages, as well as cheaper and more obtainable internet plans for mobiles than those for computers,” the researchers comment.
Xiaomi and Vivo Outperform Samsung, Apple Way Down in Rankings
Chinese brands Xiaomi and Vivo were used by 21.9% and 20.79% of Casino Days players from South Asia respectively, and together with the positioned in third place with a 18.1% share South Korean brand Samsung dominate the market among real money gamers in the region.
Cupertino, California-based Apple is way down in seventh with a user share of just 2.29%, overshadowed by Chinese brands Realme (11.43%), OPPO (11.23%), and OnePlus (4.07%).
Huawei is at the very bottom of the chart with a tiny share just below the single percent mark, trailing behind mobile devices by Motorola, Google, and Infinix.
The data on actual phone usage provided by Casino Days, even though limited to the gaming parts of the population of South Asia, paints a different picture from global statistics on smartphone shipments by vendors.
Apple and Samsung have been sharing the worldwide lead for over a decade, while current regional leader Xiaomi secured their third position globally just a couple of years ago.
Striking Android Dominance among South Asian Real Money Gaming Communities
The shifted market share patterns of the world’s top smartphone brands in South Asia observed by the Casino Days research paper reveal a striking dominance of Android devices at the expense of iOS-powered phones.
On the global level, Android enjoys a comfortable lead with a sizable 68.79% share which grows to nearly 79% when we look at the whole continent of Asia. The data on South Asian real money gaming communities suggests that Android’s dominance grows even higher and is north of the 90% mark.
Among the major factors behind these figures, the authors of the study point to the relative affordability of and greater availability of Android devices in the region, especially when manufactured locally in countries like India and Vietnam.
“And, with influencers and tech reviews putting emphasis on Android devices, the choice of mobile phone brand and OS becomes easy; Android has a much wider range of products and caters to the Asian online casino market in ways that Apple can’t due to technical limitations,” the researchers add.
The far better integration achieved by Google Pay compared to its counterpart Apple Pay has also played a crucial role in shaping the existing smartphone market trends.
