However, the police suddenly changed the helipad to the Ramagundam Police headquarters, citing high tension electric wires passing near the NTPC stadium. Modi’s chopper then landed at the Police HQ at 3.10 pm.

Apart from the re-dedication of RFCL, the Prime Minister will also lay the foundation for a few national highway and railway projects.
