Telangana

Telangana is a state in southern India. Its capital is Hyderabad.
There are various versions about its name and origin.Here I will give some:-

The name “Telangana” refers to the word TRILINGA (TRILINGA DESAM) meaning “a country of three lingas”. According to a Hindu scripts, Lord Shiva descended in the “lingam” form on three mountains, Kaleswaram, Srisailam & Draksharama which marked the boundaries of the Trilingadesam later called Telinga, Telunga or Telugu.

A more historical reasoning is that during the reign of Nizams, the region was known as Telugu + Angana (countryard आँगन, प्रांगण) to differentiate it from the areas where Marathi was spoken.
Days passed and people started calling Telangana with Bhagyanagar(Now Hyderabad) has its capital.
The word similar to Telangana can also be seen in a name of Malik Maqbul (14th century), who was called the Tilangani, which implies that he was from Tilangana. He was the commander of the Warangal Fort (Kataka Pāludu).

After India’s independence in 1947, the last Nizam of Hyderabad, Osman Ali Khan, refused to join the Indian Union despite repeated requests from Jawaharlal Nehru & Sardar Patel. The Indian army annexed Hyderabad and the Nizam surrendered to Sardar Patel on 17th Sept, 1948 under Madras Presidency.

Govt of India agreed for creation of a separate Telangana state in July, 2013 & Telangana came into effect on June 2, 2014 as ‘Telangana state’, the 29th state of Indian Union.

VEDIK GYAN

Why do we do 108 rounds(pradakshana) in temples? or Japa Mala has 108 or Ashtotra 108 etc.

Astronomically, there are 27 constellations of stars in our galaxy, and each one them has 4 directions, and 27 X 4 = 108, In other words the number 108 covers the whole galaxy.

Numerical scale: The addition of digits of number 108 is 9, Indian Vedas, treats the Sun as God, and Sun has 12 signs (Zodiac signs). In Yajurved, Sun is related with Lord Brahma (the number 9), remember – 12 X 9 = 108.

According to Indian mythology, there are 4 Yugs
Satyug – consists of 172,800 years (1+7+2+8 = 18 = (1+8 = 9)
TretaYug consists of 1296000 years (1+2+9+6 = 18 = (1+8 = 9)
DwaparYug consists of 864000 years (8+4+6) = 18 = (1+8 = 9)
Kaliyug consists of 432000 years (4+3+2) = 9

The Sudarshana Chakra (सुदर्शन चक्र) is a spinning, disk-like weapon, literally meaning “disk of auspicious vision,” having 108 serrated edges used by Shri Vishnu Bhagwan.

First thing I want to clear here Santana Dharma is not a religion, here dharma means “cosmic law and order”, as applied to the teachings for mankind to leave in systematic way.
