New Delhi: Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu on Thursday
expressed hope that Hyderabad's Rajiv Gandhi international airport will

Naidu said the airport was originally named after former Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh N T Rama Rao but once its location was shifted from Begumpet to Shamshabad, the then Congress government at the Centre renamed it after former prime minister Rajiv Gandhi.
"The Central government has to do it. This has been our demand," he said after a meeting with Home Minister Rajnath Singh.
