Telangana CM to attend WEF meeting in Davos
Later in the night, he would leave for Davos in Switzerland along with a delegation to attend the World Economic Forum (WEF) meeting.
The Chief Minister will pitch for investments in Telangana at the Davos meeting. The State government has been regularly participating in the meetings to attract investments. Till last year, Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) working president K.T. Rama Rao was the face of the Telangana team at Davos, that he led as the IT Minister.
In the erstwhile united Andhra Pradesh, then Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu started the trend of attending WEF meetings in Davos to sell the State as investor-friendly and attract industrialists across the world.
