Telangana IT Minister KTR needs no introduction. Ever since he was made the Minister he has been showing his mark as a good leader and bringing new companies for investments.

There is an interesting story behind KTR's political journey. Not many of us know the interesting story and what made him foray into politics.

KTR who took part in the orientation session for the Master's batch of Public Policy (MPP) program said his father wanted him to become an IAS officer.

He also said KCR had also sent him to the prestigious JNU University in New Delhi.

Giving more info on what made him enter politics, KTR said, during his brief stay at JNU, he saw a wall writing that says, you should decide your future politics as the politics decides everything.

"In a democracy when everything is decided by politics, you better decide your future politics," the writing in the JNU wall says.

TRS Working President KTR said he got inspired by the writing and foraying into politics. My father doesn't know about my political entry, all he wanted was to see me as an IAS officer, KTR said.

As a reason why he didn't inform KCR about his political entry is that he knew KCR would refuse this.

KTR had come a long way in his political career. He used to work in the United States. Leaving the job, he landed in Telangana and took part in the separate state agitation vigorously.

He fought his debut elections in 2009 from the Siricilla Assembly constituency and entered the state legislative assembly.

Given the potential he has, KTR was made the IT Minister of Telangana when the state was bifurcated from combined Andhra Pradesh. With his work, he showed everyone that picking him as IT Minister was not a bad choice.

IT Minister KTR who also holds the position of the TRS Working President stays active on social media and addresses the issues that come to his notice.

During the Covid time, he tried to address as many issues as possible. He had arranged bed facilities and oxygen facilities for patients for the Covid patients.
