Telangana Minister for IT, Industries and Municipal Administration K.T. Rama Rao and Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee (KPCC) president D.K. Shiva Kumar had an interesting face-off on a social media platform on the competition between Hyderabad and Bengaluru as the country’s best city in the growth of IT sector.
It all started on March 31, when KTR, in response to a post by the founder and CEO of Khatabook/Housing highlighted bad roads, daily power cuts, poor quality water supply and unusable footpaths in India’s Silicon Valley (Bengaluru – HSR Layout/Koramangala) in spite of generating billions of dollars of taxes, suggested: “Pack your bags & move to Hyderabad! We gave better physical infrastructure & equally good social infrastructure. Our airport is 1 of the best & getting in & out of city is a breeze”.
