Telangana chief minister K Chandrashekhar Rao has ordered to replace his fleet of vehicles from black to white for astrological reasons. However, KCR's staff said the change of the colour of vehicles had nothing to do with astrology.
The CM's current convoy comprises four Toyota Fortuners and two Toyota land cruisers - Prado -- which had been purchased in 2011 when N Kiran Kumar Reddy was the chief minister. According to one estimate a complete makeover of KCR's vehicle fleet would cost the state exchequer nearly Rs.28 crore.
