YSR Congress party president and Andhra Pradesh chief minister Y S Jagan Mohan Reddy will be going on a foreign tour in two spells in August, his first overseas visit after assuming power in the state.
An official in the chief minister’s office said Jagan Reddy, along with his family members, will be leaving for Israel on August 1 on a four-day tour.
The Andhra chief minister will then be leaving on a week-long tour to the United States on August 16, after participating in the Independence Day celebrations at Visakhapatnam.
“This is also a private visit. He will be going to the US along with his wife Bharati Reddy and younger daughter Harsha Reddy for her admission in an undergraduate cours. He will return to Vijayawada late on August 22,” the official said.
Jagan Reddy is likely to address Telugu diaspora in Dallas as part of his trip on August 17.
According to Sridhar Reddy Korsapati, a representative of NATA, Jagan Reddy will address a public meeting of Telugu NRIs at Dallas Convention Center. “We are expecting huge turnout of Telugu NRIs, cutting across party lines,” Korsapati said.
