Rama Rao would accompany the company delegation to Warangal the next time for another round of discussions.

Kitex Garments has recently decided to drop its ₹3,500-crore investment project declared during Ascend Kerala Investment Summit in January 2020 because of continuous surprise inspections by bureaucrats from various departments.
The Kerala projects included an apparel park employing 20,000 and three industrial parks at Kochi, Thiruvananthapuram and Palakkad.
