Lakshmi Manchu is enveloping up her US assignments and is all set to travel back to India. Father Mohan Babu said, “My daughter will be back in India to pursue fresh business interests, and her family too is moving back. She wants to settle down in India.”

Lakshmi Manchu was one of the first from the city to greet BJP’s Narendra Modi during the latter’s visit to Hyderabad, and she has also been tweeting and voicing opinions on politics and nation building, often. So, is her India move a major step towards a possible political career? “She has to decide,” says Mohan Babu. On the other side, Mohanbabu indeed well connected with many names in the system, and it will be no surprise for the state if the daughter uses those associations to set a position of power regionally.
