Bengaluru: Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai on Tuesday April 6 dismissed Telangana IT Minister K. T. Rama Rao’s attempts to compare Bengaluru with Hyderabad as an ‘utter joke.’
He was responding to Rao’s recent tweet urging a Bengaluru entrepreneur to relocate to Hyderabad, citing the City’s superior physical and social infrastructure.
Pack your bags & move to Hyderabad! We have better physical infrastructure & equally good social infrastructure. Our airport is 1 of the best & getting in & out of city is a breeze
More importantly our Govt’s focus is on 3 i Mantra; innovation, infrastructure & inclusive growth https://t.co/RPVALrl0QB

“It is an utter joke. People from all over the world are coming to Bengaluru. Bengaluru has the most startups,” he said.
Bommai said in response to a question on Rao’s tweet said, “The highest unicorns are in Bengaluru, worth millions and billions of dollars.”
