Telangana Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy proposes naming a prominent Hyderabad road "Donald Trump Avenue" ahead of the Telangana Rising Global Summit. The initiative, which would be the first to honor a sitting US president outside America, extends to naming roads after tech giants like Google and Microsoft. BJP leadership has criticized the move, suggesting Hyderabad should instead be renamed Bhagyanagar, highlighting growing political tensions over urban identity in the rapidly developing tech hub.
