Harish Rao seeks TDP Minister’s help!

May be for the first time since the state bifurcation, Telangana government may have found it necessary to meet a TDP Leader. In to the details, Telangana Water Resources Minister, Harish Rao who usually gets irritated at the sight or mention of TDP party or its leaders met Union Civil Aviation Minister Ashok Gajapathi Raju (from TDP) in Delhi a short while ago.

Harish Rao requested him to clear the permissions and setup an airport in Kothagudem, Khammam district. Harish Rao explained the minister that there are several Central and state industries in Kothagudem and an airport there will be very useful.

He also mentioned that current Hyderabad Airport is 6 hours away from Kothagudem, making it difficult for commuting. It is said that Ashok Gajapathi Raju responded positively and promised to consider it. TRS sources say that Harish Rao did not meet a TDP leader but instead met a union minister. They also said that their intention is very clear that they will embrace any one who will be of help to Telangana.
