IT minister K.T. Rama Rao on Saturday said he would lead a delegation of representatives of the IT sector in the state and related organisations to the Centre, seeking measures to  protect the interests of the industry in the wake of US President Donald Trump’s statements on H1B visa and proposed legislation in the US Congress.

Speaking to media persons in Karimnagar, Mr Rama Rao said the TS government would ask Indian business leaders and IT companies in the US, who were well-wishers of the state, to protect the industry which was India’s second biggest exporter of IT goods.

He said there was nothing much to worry about Mr Trump’s statements as there was an established system in the US, and all policies would get through only after serious discussions in Congress.
