When Mohammad Mahboob Ali tweeted to TRS Working President K.T. Rama Rao that an old man ‘Chaush’ who sells ice-gola near St. Georges Grammar School, he did not expect a reply from him. Fortunately, for him, he received a reply from KT Rama Rao saying it would be a pleasure to meet the old man.
In a tweet, KTR said: ‘was a pleasure meeting Syed Ali aka ‘Chaush’; gentleman who used to sell Ice Gola (chaush) at my school in Abids. Promised him support from my side.’ In the meeting, Syed Ali informed KTR that due to old age, he is unable to work and hence, requested KTR to show him a way.
KTR apparently assured the old man that the government will provide him a house and old-age pension. KTR’s tweets and making the meeting a reality has won him praise from netizens. Several people of Twitter praised KTR for ‘such a heart-warming gesture,’ while some of them posted a picture of KTR with his friend at St. George’s Grammar School.
