A flight special Carried cover was released to commemorate the introduction of flight services between Tirupati International Airport (TIR) and Kalaburagi Airport (GBR) on 11th January 2021.
Tirupati and Kalaburagi were part of the erstwhile Vijayanagara Empire. Lord Krishnadevaraya was a staunch devotee of Lord Sri Venkateswara. A special cover on the gold coin was issued by Sri Krishnadevaraya and it carries the image of Lord Sri Venkateswara on the obverse and inscribed in Devanagiri 'Sri Krishna Raya'. This first flight ignites the memory of the royal connection between Andhra Pradesh and Karnataka.
