In a post on X (formerly Twitter), Mr. Babu said that former Chief Minister of the erstwhile united Andhra Pradesh Y.S.
Rajasekhara Reddy wrote to Ratan Tata when the State lost the Nano car project to Gujarat in 2008. “He replied stating that he has something bigger in mind for Hyderabad and that’s how the Sikorsky helicopter project took birth in Adibhatla, which thanks to the anchor industry of Tata Advance Systems has become a global aerospace cluster today. He was very impressed with the ORR and while driving on it by had commented that he could land an aircraft on it.
We consider it a fitting tribute to his memory to look at the possibility of naming the approach road from ORR to Adibhatla after him as Ratan Tata Marg. May he rest in peace and continue to inspire us,” said Mr. Babu.
