Telangana Minister for Welfare
“Bringing globally reputed educational, research and skills institutions to Hyderabad, forging international partnerships and creating world-class opportunities for Telangana’s youth are among the key objectives of the State government. If permission for such a visit has been denied for political reasons, it gives rise to serious concerns and is not healthy for a democratic system.”
