Hi,
Fallow these commands


wget http://abhiomkar.googlepages.com/lohit_te.ttf
sudo cp lohit_te.ttf /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-telugu-fonts/
sudo fc-cache

And Restart xsession (Ctrl+Alt+Backspace) to get correct telugu rendering.

Copying eenadu font to font folder works, you can read eenadu web page. But, you 'll get '-' symbol in between letters.

Thanks abhinay for your help...yes now i installed it under the fonts directory and now able to read it .
I have found a answer to visiting telugu sites without any problem there is this unicode conversion gateway which helps some of the indian religonal languagues to be seen with out need of any installtion and it is much more clear.... here is the link
