Answering a question, she wondered why Union minister M Venkaiah Naidu chose to restrict his visits to flood-hit areas only to Andhra Pradesh and had not shown a similar interest in flood-affected areas of Telangana.As a Union minister, he should ensure that Telangana receives the kind of aid he was promising AP for flood relief, she added.
