Union Minister for Tourism, Culture and North East States Development G. Kishan Reddy on Friday appealed to Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao to consider sending a proposal to the Centre for setting up of a ‘Science City’ in Hyderabad.
In a communication to the Chief Minister, a copy of which was released to the media, the Minister said the Centre “feels” that Hyderabad, which is "the city of science" and being “one of the most techno savvy State” serves as an ideal location for setting up of a ‘Science City’.
The proposed ‘Science City’ is aimed to be a popular tourist attraction of the location providing experiment-based immersive learning ambience to inculcate a spirit of inquiry, foster creative talent and create scientific temper in the community as a whole. It is characterised by its two-pronged channel of communication - exhibits and activities.
