New Delhi, April 28: Minister of State in Prime Minister’s Office Jitendra Singh on Thursday denied reports that Telangana Chief Minister KC Rao was asked not to attend an event in Hyderabad in February which was attended by Prime Minister Narendra Modi. “According to some media reports, the son of Telangana CM has claimed that PMO sent a message that Shri KCR should not be a part of PM’s programs when he visited Hyderabad. This is patently untrue. No such message was sent by the PMO,” Singh said in a tweet. “Infact, the CM of Telangana was expected at the events on 5th February when PM visited Hyderabad. It was the CM’s office which informed the PMO that the CM was not feeling well and hence would not be attending,” he said. KT Rama Rao, the son of Telangana Chief Minister, in an interview to news channel NDTV said KC Rao was asked not to attend the inauguration of Ramanujacharya’s Statue of Equality in February this year. The statue was inaugurated by Prime Minister Modi. “When prime minister Modi was here, we got special explicit instruction from PMO that Chief Minister should not come… Would you call that an insult? I don’t know… These are all grey lines and grey area…” KTR said. (UNI)
