Rajender Urges Defence and Rail Upgrades in Telangana
Eatala Rajender is a politician from Telangana.
On July 30, he went to New Delhi to talk with two top government ministers.
He asked the Defence Minister for money to improve roads in a military area and to let more people use those roads.
He also talked to the Railway Minister about fixing bridges and making it safer for people near train tracks.
He wants to make sure trains run safely and that roads are better for everyone.
Eatala Rajender met Defence Minister Rajnath Singh on July 30 to seek funding for Secunderabad Cantonment development and road widening on defence lands.
He requested permission to widen roads from Kowkur Dargah to BITS Pilani and increase public access to defence routes.
Rajender highlighted BJP's growing political opportunities in Telangana, urging central support for a breakthrough.
