Hyderabad: Telangana minister for IT, Industries and Commerce, D Sridhar Babu, has been appointed the president of the All India Industrial Exhibition (AIIE) society that hosts the Numaish, the biggest industrial exhibition in the country, every year, in Hyderabad.
Sridhar Babu replaces former finance minister and BRS leader Harish Rao as the president of the All India Industrial Exhibition (AIIE) society.
The exhibition society notified that Numaish will kick off on January 1, 2024, and will stay open to the public until February 15, 2024.
Numaish-e-Masnuaat-e-Mulki, or Numaish in short, began in 1938 as an event to promote locally produced goods. It was an idea by a group of graduates from Osmania University. The seventh Nizam of Hyderabad State, Mir Osman Ali Khan, inaugurated the first ‘Numaish’.
After seeing the response, it was decided to make it an annual event and use the earnings to promote education. Numaish began with just 50 stalls and today has evolved into a massive national industrial exhibition.
