 సిరి వెన్నెల సీతారామశాస్త్రి “కలా”మ తల్లికి,  ఇదే నా అశృ శబ్దాంజలి -


సిరి సిరి మువ్వల సిరిసరసి సూర్యభానమే “సి”కారమై,

రేపటి తూర్పు రుచిని రేచీకటికి రమించిన రాగమే “రి”కారమై


వేకువ విశ్వనాధ భస్మ షాహి వెల్లువైన వేదామృతమే “వె”కారమై,

లలిత కళల లావణ్య లాస్య లిఖితలే “ల”కారమై


సరస స్వర సుర ఝరీగమనమే “సీ”కారమై,

తొలి తొలకరికి పులకరించిన తెలుగు తీపే “తా”కారమై,

రసఝరులు జాలువారే రుద్ర రాగాభిషేకమే “రా”కారమై,

మలయా నిలయుడైన ముక్కంటి మంత్రజపమే “మ”కారమై


శివ సన్నిధికై విరుచుకుపడు సురగంగ శ్వాస ఛలనమే “శా”కారమై,

సాగిన సాధన సార్ధకమొందగ సీతారామ సవ్వడలే శా”స్త్రి”కారమై!!

As usual, the ambiguities come from one of Reliance for one of the largest power plants in the world (Sasan UMPP) Here is a brief history of the estimates given by Reliance on its expected coal consumption: In 2007, when Sasan was awarded to Reliance it initially quoted that it would require 16 mtpa (million tonnes per annum) to run its plant In 2007, Reliance quoted that it can mine 25 mtpa of coal from the mines it was awarded.

Note: Since 1970, the state of California had only 3 instances of continuous unemployment rate of less than 5.5% for a continuous span of 4 quarters... This proposal would ensure that California will have lesser regulations on green house gas emissions fo...
