Ready for the run: Chief Minister Y. S. Rajasekhara Reddy and Speaker K. Suresh Reddy at the Hyderabad 10K run.

HYDERABAD: Terrorist attacks on Mumbai had their echo on the Hyderabad 10K Run even as about scores of people lined up for the mega event on a surprisingly pleasant not-so chilly Sunday morning.

The organisers decided to cut off the entertainment part of the event that was originally planned and instead express solidarity with all the bereaved family members in the terror attacks.

The spirit of integration with chants of ‘Vande Mataram’ was too discernible to be missed.

The most striking feature of the patriotic sentiments being evoked was the setting up portraits of the three police officers of Mumbai and the NSG commando, Sandeep Unnikrishnan, who laid their lives in the terror attacks. Speaker the Legislative Assembly, K. Suresh Reddy was the first to arrive at the venue.Soon, Chief Minister Dr. Y. S. Rajasekhara Reddy, dressed in a track and a 10K Run T-shirt joined the participants.

Film stars Venkatesh, Vishnuvardhan and others also participated.
