Complan Boy and ace Indian cricketer, R. Ashwin unveils the first ever largest Complan Cup in Tamil Nadu and announces the hunt for ‘Complan Kids’

~Invites mothers in Tamil Nadu to send in photographs of their Complan Boy or Girl~

Chennai, 27^th October, 2015: Tamil Nadu’s very own Complan Boy and India’s leading cricketer, R. Ashwin unveiled the first ever largest Complan Cup and announced a city wide hunt for ‘Complan Kids’. This is no simple cup, but the first ever live hoarding on a cup. He invited mothers in Tamil Nadu to send in photographs of their Complan boy/girl and all pictures will be pasted on the cup.

R. Ashwin shared that he is proud to be a Complan Boy because he grew up drinking Complan and that he is delighted that his and Tamil Nadu’s favorite Classic Chocolate flavor is back in Tamil Nadu!

The hunt for ‘Complan Kids’ was initiated with an intention to bring awareness about the importance of a complete nutritious diet for a growing child, especially when children may not finish their meals and thereby end up not getting sufficient nutrition.  

The deadline to submit photographs for the city-wide hunt is November 15^th 2015. Mothers submitting their entries will also stand to get a personalized replica of the Complan cup with pictures of Complan kids along with the R.Ashwin’s signature so they can give the Complete Planned Milk Drink to their kids in the collectible Complan Cup.  Ten lucky kids will also stand to have a meet and greet with R. Ashwin.

Nutrition is a primary concern among mothers when it comes to their child’s diet. Growing children need much more nutrition and mothers in Tamil Nadu really care about giving their kids complete nutrition to meet their needs to grow well. But kids may leave their meal unfinished or may prefer to eat junk food. Lack of complete nutrition affects the overall growth and development. Complan, made up of 100% milk protein and 34 vital nutrients bridges nutrition gaps and helps in their holistic growth and development.

Speaking about his association with Complan, R. Ashwin said, “I am a Complan boy. I have grown up drinking it. It is very important for every child to receive the right kind of nutrition while growing up. Through this initiative, we would like to applaud Complan Mothers for making the right nutrition choice. I am also equally happy to announce the comeback of TN’s favourite Classic Chocolate flavor which was my favourite and was all along with me while my growing up years is now back in the market.

He further added, “Complan is made up of 100% milk protein, which means it retains all the goodness of milk. Complan’s Classic Chocolate flavour not only tastes good but also ensures that children, who are fussy eaters, like I was when I was a kid, receive the essential vitamins and nutrients which are required to reach their full potential”.

Complan’s Classic Chocolate flavour is available at all traditional and modern retail outlets across Chennai in 500 g packs at Rs. 235.

Andhra Pradesh’s new capital Amaravati inaugurated today by Narendra Modi

Narendra Modi laid the foundation stone of Andhra Pradesh’s new capital Amaravati at Uddandarayunipalem village in Guntur district

Amaravati: Amid fanfare, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday laid the foundation stone of Andhra Pradesh’s new capital Amaravati at Uddandarayunipalem village in Guntur district.

Union ministers M. Venkaiah Naidu, Ashok Gajapathi Raju and Nirmala Sitaraman, Andhra Pradesh and Telangana governor E.S.L. Narasimhan and chief ministers, N. Chandrababu Naidu and K. Chandrasekhar Rao, were among those present on the occasion of ‘shila nyas’ in the village, about 40km from Vijayawada, the commercial hub of Andhra Pradesh.

Modi went around ‘Amaravati Pavilion’, a walk through showcasing evolution of Amaravati, its present and future. Amaravati was once the seat of power of Satavahana rulers. As per a call given by Chandrababu Naidu, soil and water from 16,000 villages in the state and prominent pilgrim centres in the country have been brought to the capital region to be used in the construction of the capital city. The idea is to promote a sense of belongingness among the people, officials said. Singapore government agencies have prepared the master plans for the three-layered capital—seed capital, capital city and capital region.

Naidu invites Telangana CM for Amaravathi foundation ceremony

Hyderabad: The long and bitter spell of political animosity between the chief ministers of the two Telugu States, Andhra Pradesh and Telangana, N Chandrababu Naidu and K Chandrasekhar Rao respectively, took back seat for a change when the former called on the latter to extend an invitation for the foundation stone laying ceremony of AP's new capital city -- Amaravathi -- on October 22.

The two leaders, who have been at loggerheads ever since the bifurcation of AP to form Telangana State in June last year, set aside their differences and put on smiles and indulged in friendly banter when Naidu called on KCR, as the Telangana chief minister is known, at his official residence late Sunday evening.

This is the first visit Naidu has made to KCR residence since the bitter political war broke between the two states, and the two have been avoiding bumping into each other even in social functions.

Naidu flew down from Tirupati where he performed his grandson's 'Annaprasana' (first rice feeding) ritual. The one-on-one meeting between the two chief ministers lasted around 55 minutes and saw a lot of friendly banter. The meet comes in the backdrop of the cash-for-votes scam, in which Telangana TDP MLA A Revanth Reddy was caught allegedly bribing a Telangana legislator to make him vote for the TDP-BJP combine in the Telangana legislative council elections.

While the TRS accused Naidu of being the chief accused in the scam, releasing an audio tape of his phone conversation with nominated Elvis Stephenson via the media, Naidu hit back claiming that his phone was being illegally tapped by Telangana.Following Naidu's formal invite, KCR promised to attend the Amaravati ceremony, putting to rest speculation that he would not participate in the function in which Prime Minister Narendra Modi is the chief guest. Several chief ministers from various states, union ministers and senior politicians from different parties are expected to attend the ceremony, which is expected to be an extravaganza with the Telugu Desam Party (TDP) government leaving no stone unturned to make it a memorable affair.

KCR reportedly informed Naidu that he would drive down to the venue after an overnight stay at Suryapet in Nalgonda district in Telangana, which is close to the AP border. The Telangana CM said he would go first to the famous Kanakadurga temple in Vijayawada before making his way to the venue.

Touching upon some of the issues faced by the two States, Naidu told his Telangana counterpart that it would be beneficial for both States if they worked together towards the Amaravati-Hyderabad-Mumbai and Hyderabad-Kurnool-Bengaluru industrial corridors on par with the Delhi-Mumbai, Bangalore-Chennai-Visakhapatnam and Delhi-Kolkata industrial corridors.
