She also asked the ATA representatives to set up a Telangana pavilion in every convention and described the ATA as Andhra Telangana Association.

Later MLC Kavitha unveiled a special edition of ‘Bathukamma’ a book, written by writer Prabhavati.
Kavitha suggested that if the Telugu Associations in America set up a headquarters in any city to establish a museum to promote Telugu culture and traditions, it will be very useful for future generations.
