Telangana Chief Minister KCR has said that he would not welcome Prime Minister Narendra Modi on his visit to Hyderabad.

Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao has chosen T Srinivas Yadav, Minister of Animal Husbandry, Fisheries, and Dairy Development, to meet and greet Prime Minister Modi during his visit.

On Saturday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi will go to Hyderabad for two events, both of which will take place on the outskirts of the city. He'll kick off the 50th-anniversary celebrations at the International Crops Research Institute for the Semi-Arid Tropics (ICRISAT) site in Patancheru. He will also dedicate the Equality Statue to the country.

Rao has picked another minister to welcome the prime minister, which is a very important step.

PM Modi's visit to vaccine manufacturer Bharat Biotech in 2020 did not include Rao. The visit took place during the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) elections, which featured a heated exchange of words between BJP and TRS officials.

PM Modi was recently ridiculed by K Chandrashekar Rao. "When the election was in Bengal, he grew a beard like Tagore, went to Tamil Nadu and draped Lungi, went to Punjab and wore Pagadi, then went to Manipur and Uttarakhand and wore a native cap." 'What exactly is this?' Rao had asked.

The BJP responded angrily to the remarks, as well as KCR's suggestion of a "new Constitution," which it said was a ruse to "deny reservations for SCs and STs."
