Governor Tamilisai Soundararajan embarked on her two-day tour of the tribal majority district with a visit to Bhadrachalam on Monday after travelling a distance of more than 300 km from Secunderabad by rail and road routes to the temple town via Kothagudem.
Her rail and road journey comes four days after the concern expressed by her over the alleged denial of official protocol and helicopter facility during her visit to Medaram jathara in February this year.
According to sources, the Governor along with senior officials of Raj Bhavan travelled by a special bogey attached to the Manuguru superfast express train from Secunderabad to Kothagudem (Bhadrachalam Road). On her arrival at the railway station in Kothagudem at about 5 a.m., she was received by Additional Collector Venkateshwarlu and RDO Swarnalatha, sources added.
