I've addressed your feedback and cleaned up the PR:
- ✅ Removed changeset - no package release needed as requested
- ✅ Essential files only – just i18n.json, Telugu README, and language navigation
- ✅ Clean implementation – follows same pattern as existing languages
The PR now contains only the necessary changes for Telugu language support. Ready for review!
