Rajya Sabha MP and Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) leader J Santosh Kumar extended Rs 10 lakh financial assistance for the development of the Botanical Garden in Hyderabad. After flagging off the 10K, 5K and 3K Run for Peace organised by the Botanical Garden Walkers Association, the MP complimented the Association members for organising such events. “After being caught in busy work schedules, many people were neglecting the importance of fitness and health. And, events like Run for Peace stress and motivate people towards a healthy life,” the MP said. “Impressed with the association’s commitment to developing the Botanical Garden, I am announcing Rs 10 lakh fund,” he said. Later Medak MP K Prabhakar Reddy, local MLA A Gandhi and Forest Development Corporation Chairman V Pratap Reddy each announced Rs 10 lakh each for the development of the garden.
