The prospect of an imminent political change concerning the bifurcation of Andhra Pradesh State to form new State of Telangana has become a huge dilemma affecting the future of many individuals and organizations. Political happenings have most often impacted our lives. Today, politics has become an important aspect of our lives. Our governments have become highly politically oriented. The agitation for and against state¬hood for Telangana during the last several years has rendered the state administration rudderless. The educated youth in search of opportunities were badly affected. The professionals belonging to various streams are a concerned and a frustrated lot. In fact, the volatile political situation has disturbed every¬one in the system with media being no exception.

The entire media in our state has taken a position this way or that way9 with none able to avoid the temptation of successfully staying neutral. The media unwittingly joined and complicated the political mess. Today, people of both regions in the state are so diametrically opposed to each other that any sort of decision that is just and fair for both is seemingly sus¬picious. There are varying opinions among the common peo¬ple about bifurcation. The media too got divided on this sensitive issue. They too have taken sides. Some desire Telan¬gana state coming into being. Some others dread it. Some have been seeking to avert it. All in all, the media in general has been quite biased with a few managing to swing both ways. But the entire vernacular media (Telugu) has become com-pletely involved in the state bifurcation issue without excep¬tion vitiating the collective conscience of the people.

This is a dangerous phenomenon in our system. The media has been reckoned the fourth estate in our modern day governance. It’s been someone who was trusted to act as a watchdog in our society when other organs tend to sway elsewhere unwarrantedly. Therefore in times like these --¬We appeal to everyone in the media to think objectively; act rationally and discharge their duties diligently. First we our¬selves at Deccan Post sincerely resolve to make a humble beginning from our end towards fostering good will amongst the affected lot.

Hoping for a better future, we make no prediction in re¬gard to anything. But we do fondly hope--fervently pray--that this mighty scourge of parochialism may speedily pass away. Yet, if destiny wills that it continues for times to come and until it is amicably resolved9 it’s time we all take a pledge that we shall strive to spread the message of goodwill and act as an instrument capable of healing the wounds and not otherwise.

Usage

Use this rcat template in any namespace (most often "Template:" of course, but there are also many templates in "User:" and a few, mostly process-related, in "Wikipedia:").
  • Add this rcat to a redirect in the following manner:
#REDIRECT [[Template:(target page name)]]

{{Rcat shell|
{{R from template shortcut}}
}}
and when the redirect is in article mainspace, printworthiness should also be tagged:
#REDIRECT [[Template:(target page name)]]

{{Rcat shell|
{{R from template shortcut}}
{{R unprintworthy}}
}}
Template {{Rcat shell}} is an alias for the Redirect category shell template, which may be used to add as many appropriate rcats as needed, usually from one to seven, along with their parameters, to a redirect. For more information see the documentation on its template page. This rcat may also tag a redirect individually:
#REDIRECT [[Template:(target page name)]]

{{R from template shortcut}}
This is in accord with instructions found at Wikipedia:REDCAT.
  • Use this rcat to tag any redirect that is a shortcut to a template, which usually has a longer pagename. The redirect itself does not necessarily have to be a template.
  • It is important to note that it is the target that determines the difference between a template shortcut and any other shortcut. If the shortcut redirect is in any namespace and the target is a template, then the redirect is a "template shortcut". Shortcut redirects that target template pages should always be tagged with {{R from template shortcut}} and should never be tagged with {{R from shortcut}}, which is meant only for shortcuts that do not target templates.
  • Important also is the fact that template talk pages are in the talk namespace and are not in template space; if the shortcut redirect targets a talk page of any subject namespace, then use {{R from shortcut}} instead.
