A recent news paper item announced that Chandra Babu Naidu garu had
granted a Personal Computer to every MLA to keep in touch with the
developments in his constituency.
Well, well, with the legacy left by Late Rama Rao and the effect of the
other states in the neighbourhood the Govt. wanted all the GUI and
other stuff only in TELUGU.
A tender for work related to this TELUGEEKARANA (Telugising) of both
environment and the text appearing on the GUI has been floated and
Intergraph is also in the race for clinching it.
All the dialog boxes and text are being translated into TELUGU.
Some of the efforts going into this are as below :
