Telangana: 9-year-old girl finally named by CM KCR

Hyderabad: A nine-year-old child, who grew up without a name, was finally named by chief minister K Chandrasekhar Rao (KCR) on Sunday.

Suresh and Anita, a couple from Nandigama village in Jayashankar Bhupalapally gave birth to a baby girl in 2013. Being active members in the Telangana statehood movement and great admirers of KCR, they wanted their child to be named by him.

Nine years later, MLC Madhusudhana Chari came to know about this family and brought them to Pragati Bhavan in Hyderabad.
