Deputy Chief Minister K. Pawan Kalyan received a special gesture from Prime Minister Narendra Modi at the inauguration of the Bhogapuram airport on Saturday. During the event, the Prime Minister briefly interacted with Mr. Pawan Kalyan and enquired about his health, as the latter is recovering from a recent shoulder surgery.
Mr. Pawan Kalyan, wearing a sling, attended his first public meeting since the surgery and shared the dais with Prime Minister Modi and Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu. The interaction between the PM and the Deputy CM was seen as a warm moment during the formal proceedings.
The Deputy CM's appearance at the event drew attention, given his ongoing recovery. He underwent surgery on his shoulder recently, and the sling was a visible reminder of his condition. PM Modi's enquiry about his well-being was a personal touch amid the official programme.

Chandrababu Naidu highlighted the airport's potential to transform the region, while Prime Minister Modi spoke about the government's commitment to improving infrastructure across the country.
