🌟 35 Days to Go — Time to Finalise a State Observance
The countdown has now entered its decisive phase.
Just 35 days remain for Andhra Pradesh to take a landmark step:
declaring December 28 — Shri Ratan Tata Birthday — as a State Observance.
The past weeks showcased AP’s progress across innovation,
governance, and welfare. But now, one action can give these efforts a moral,
emotional, and aspirational anchor:
A State Observance that celebrates values-driven
innovation.
A day that inspires every student.
A day that honours humility, courage, empathy and nation-building.
Andhra Pradesh is uniquely positioned to lead this — and the
moment is now.
✨ Today’s Inspiration — “Kalalaku Rekkalu”
Some announcements do more than inform.
They awaken an entire generation.
The unveiling of Kalalaku Rekkalu (Wings to Dream) — a
scheme that helps AP’s girl students pursue higher education in India and
abroad — carries a profound message:
Dreams deserve wings.
Girls deserve opportunities.
The State will stand behind their ambition.
When governance rises to the level of aspiration, the future
shifts.
A girl in a fishing village imagining an overseas university…
A student from a small town dreaming of a global lab…
A future entrepreneur seeing a wider horizon…
This is Andhra Pradesh saying:
“Fly — not tomorrow, but today.”
And if we can empower dreams with such vision,
we can certainly honour the leader who taught India that
innovation must always carry empathy.
🕊️ Why December 28 Must
Be Declared — The Core Case
The time for exploration is over.
The time for decision has arrived.
1️⃣ A Values Anchor for Andhra Pradesh
December 28 is not just a birthday —
it represents humility, ethics, and design-led nation-building.
2️⃣ A State Observance That Inspires Youth
Every school, engineering college, polytechnic, and maker
space can celebrate:
Dream • Build • Lead.
3️⃣ A symbolic alignment with AP’s innovation
roadmap
RTIHs, design labs, entrepreneurship cells — all gain a moral
centre of gravity.
4️⃣ A signal to India that AP leads not just in
technology, but in values
The country respects States that honour integrity.
5️⃣ A rare chance to create a tradition that
will outlive this generation
Once established, this observance becomes a legacy day —
guiding young minds for decades.
🔵 The Museum Vision —
Now a Supporting Element (Not the Central Theme)
The Ratan Tata Museum remains a long-term dream,
but not the focus now.
A single line is enough in this phase:
In future, a values-and-innovation museum may rise
—
but today, the priority is clear:
lock the State Observance.
The countdown is not for the museum.
The countdown is for the declaration.
💠 Part A —
To Shri Nara Lokesh
Garu
Respected Lokesh Garu,
Your announcement of Kalalaku Rekkalu shows a
leadership style rooted in opportunity, dignity, and hope.
In this decisive 35-day window, I humbly appeal:
Please declare December 28 — Shri Ratan Tata
Birthday — as a State Observance.
Such a declaration will:
• Establish AP as the national leader in values-driven
innovation
• Inspire every student to dream ethically and build responsibly
• Honour a legacy of compassion, humility and design-led progress
• Align perfectly with your youth-first governance philosophy
The moment is now.
The window is open.
The opportunity is historic.
💠 Part B —
To the RTIH CEOs
& Innovation Network
The innovation ecosystem of Andhra Pradesh stands at an
inflection point.
By supporting the recognition of December 28 as Visionary
Entrepreneurs Day, you can:
• Give youth a day that defines their aspirations
• Embed ethics and empathy into engineering culture
• Strengthen AP’s identity as a State where innovation is purpose-driven
• Create a common, unifying narrative across all hubs and spokes
Your voice in this final stretch matters.
🌿 Closing — 35 Days Left
From Bengaluru, this daily appeal continues with clarity and
resolve.
This is not just about a date.
It is about identity.
It is about direction.
It is about what we choose to celebrate as a State.
The clock is ticking.
35 days remain.
Let December 28 stand for:
Visionary Entrepreneurs Day — Dream • Build • Lead.
