Pawan Kalyan tweeted a few times, showing his angst against uranium exploration and mining in the Nallamala forest region. On Wednesday too, he tweeted, saying politicians need to take a serious stand on whether they want to leave behind a ‘Bangaru Telangana’ for future generations instead of a uranium-polluted Telangana. In another tweet, he posted an excerpt from a letter by a Native American Chief to the United States Government while inquiring about the purchase of tribal lands – “Earth doesn’t belong to man, man belongs to earth.”

On Thursday, Vijay Devarakonda shared his thoughts on the same issue, saying the government should either purchase uranium or pursue clean renewable energy such as solar power over the mining of uranium is Nallamala. The tweet garnered more than 12,000 likes and was retweeted at least 3,000 times.
