During this meeting with the Union Ministers Balakrishna asked for better road connectivity between Bangalore and Hindupur en route the famous temple town of Lepakshi. Pitching for developing a four-lane and six-lane road connectivity, Balakrishna pointed out development could take place due to the location advantage of his constituency, situated very nearer to the Bangalore International Airport.
