Former IT minister KT Rama Rao (KTR) on Saturday, January 6, slammed the Congress government over failure to retain the Formula E race, scheduled for February 9, in the city.
“This is truly a poor and regressive decision by the Congress Government. Events like Hyderabad E-Prix enhance the brand image of our City and Country across the world,” said KTR, adding that KCR-led BRS government had put in a lot of effort and time to bring Formula E-Prix for the first time to India.
Formula E, earlier today, announced the cancellation of the race scheduled to take place in Hyderabad as part of the FIA World Championship event following inconclusive meetings with the newly elected Telangana government who failed to meet the requirements for the race.
