Mission Bhagirathi

Telangana IT and Urban Development Minister KT Rama Rao demanded a grant of Rs 19,000 crore from the Modi-led Central Government, for state's Mission Bhagirathi. On September 29, KTR took to Twitter and expressed happiness, after Telangana Rashtra Samithi's Mission Bhagirathi, which provides free drinking water to rural India, won NITI Aayog's national award for their mission. With this recognition, KTR sought funds to expand the mission.
