Bhatti Vikramarka completed his walkathon for over 100 days covering more than 1000 kms in an unthinkable fashion. He did not let even one day among those 100 days go by without meeting people and asking about their problems. Even though his health had some upsets in between, he never give up on his commitment. Alike Telugu great leader and ex-CM YS Rajasekhar Reddy, he also showed great commitment to meet people and create an environment around him that helps them share their issues.

YS Rajsekhar Reddy became popular and Jananetha - People's Leader, after he took up an unthinkable Padayatra all-over United Andhra Pradesh. Asking people about their problems, issues and being a person among them, he won the trust of the people. YSR talked about their upliftment, designed route maps to eradicate issues. While unfortunately, we lost him too early, his inspiration and values he has passed on to his followers, party leaders will always stay alive.

Taking this Yatra as inspiration and to re-energise Congress supporters in Telangana, Mallu Bhatti Vikramarka started his 100 days Yatra. While Government has been showcasing some images to world and selling fabrications, he went into the core Telangana and brought out the real issues of the people. Before YSR went on his Yatra, United Andhra Pradesh has been under the governance of Nara Chandra Babu Naidu for 9 years.

Just like today's Telangana, back then too, Government has showcased development made in few cities and towns as dveelopment across the state. They did not care about farmers' issues, did not try to improve infrastructure in rural areas. Tried to concentrate only on cities and expanded few muncipalities. Showcasing this as development they ignored included development of entire state and communities. Telangana in these 9 years, has been going through the same.

CM KCR and his son KTR have been developing few major centres and Hyderabad city. While they have been allowing their supporters and friends to grab as much land as they can and selling off state to corporates, they have been showcasing this as development ignoring commoners problems. YSR showcased through his Yatra how to bring out the real problems and issues. Mallu Bhatti Vikramarka has gone a step forward.

Talked to each and every commoner that came to him with a problem with compassion. Like their own kid, he asked them about their well-being. He looked at the problems and issues faced by them in real-time. Without any fabrications and manipulations, he talked heart-to-heart with each and every person. He did not show any kind of difference in his behaviour according to their community. He did not showed any kind of superiority towards them. This made him closer to them even more.

Mallu Bhatti Vikramarka improved what YSR achieved through his Yatra. In the 100 days walkathon, Mallu Bhatti Vikramarka left his identity of being CLP leader and a senior politician. He became a common Telangana person who is reacting to the problems of his fellow citizens. He became that leader, who is willing to do anything for the upliftment of the oppressed and suppressed communities who are still waiting for promised development lights to shine on them. Like YSR, he has also come-of-age as strong people's leader in Telangana.
