Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday met Kamisetty Venkat, a singer with autism, in Telangana’s Warangal.

PM Modi, heaping praise on Venkat, said that he is ‘a powerhouse of talent’ who did not let his autism deter him from pursuing a career in singing.

“The phenomenal Kamisetty Venkat is a powerhouse of talent and youthful energy. He did not let his autism deter him and went on to pursue singing. He sung and also danced to Naatu Naatu. I salute his fortitude,” the Prime Minister tweeted on his official handle.

PM Modi meets victims of left-wing extremism in Warangal

The Prime Minister, earlier on Saturday, met with the families of those who lost their lives to left-wing extremism.

“In Warangal, I met families of those who lost their near and dear ones to Left Wing Extremism. Their stories moved me profoundly and so did their strength in the face of adversity. Their resilience inspires us to keep working to build a peaceful and prosperous society,” the Prime Minister tweeted.

PM Modi also addressed a public gathering in Warangal, where he took shots at the Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao and the ruling Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) government.

“The KCR government is the most corrupt in the country. There is not a single project in this state that is not linked to corruption of the ruling party. Now their corruption has spread to Delhi. We usually see two countries or states collaborating for development but these two state governments joined hands for corruption. KCR’s dynastic rule has ruined Telangana,” Modi said in the rally.

Telangana is scheduled to go to elections at the end of 2023.
