Telangana to be India's First Rapidly Developed State: CM Revanth Reddy
CM Revanth Reddy seeks Yadav community's support for Musi Riverfront and Bharat Future City to make Telangana the country's most developed state.
Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy has set a bold vision for India’s youngest state, declaring that Telangana is on a definitive path to becoming the first rapidly developed state in the country. Speaking at the annual 'Sadar Sammelanam' in Hyderabad, the Chief Minister outlined an ambitious roadmap to transform the region into a premier economic powerhouse.
A Call for Community Partnership
Addressing a massive gathering, CM Revanth Reddy specifically sought the active backing and participation of the Yadav community to ensure the success of several flagship infrastructure projects. He emphasized that the collective effort of the fraternity is essential to realize the state's developmental goals.
The Chief Minister highlighted three critical initiatives that are central to this transformation:
- Musi Riverfront Rejuvenation: A major project aimed at restoring and developing the banks of the Musi River.
- Metro Rail Phase-2: The strategic expansion of the city's rapid transit network to improve connectivity.
- Bharat Future City: The creation of a greenfield 'Future City' designed to be a hub of innovation and modern urban living.
"We endeavour to establish Telangana as the highly developed state in the country. We are already moving forward with the development of the Musi Riverfront, the expansion of the Metro rail network, creation of 'Bharat Future City' and it requires the support of Yadavs," stated CM Revanth Reddy.
Honoring Legacy and Representation
During his address, the Chief Minister underscored the Congress-led government's commitment to upholding the dignity and political voice of the Yadav community. He pointed to several key appointments as evidence of this commitment, including:
- The elevation of Anil Kumar Yadav to the Rajya Sabha.
- The election of Naveen Yadav as an MLA.
- The appointment of Eshwaramma Yadav to the Yadagirigutta Temple Board.
The CM assured the gathering that the community would continue to receive fair representation in future governance, ensuring their self-respect remains protected.
Cultural Ties and State Recognition
Connecting the community's history to the identity of the city, Revanth Reddy noted that the historic Golconda Fort was originally known as 'Gollamkonda,' reflecting the deep-seated legacy of the Yadavs in Hyderabad's growth. He also mentioned the government's efforts in providing dedicated protection and care for cows at the official 'Goshala' in Yadagirigutta.
In a significant move to honor the community's cultural heritage, the state government has officially designated the Sadar Sammelanam as a state festival and sanctioned ₹5 crore for the celebrations. The Chief Minister described the event as a festival of self-respect for all people across Telangana, praising the Yadav brothers for their welcoming nature toward those migrating to the city from across India.
A Model for Social Justice
Beyond infrastructure and cultural recognition, the Chief Minister highlighted the state's commitment to social equity. He asserted that Telangana's comprehensive caste census has positioned the state as a pioneering role model for social justice for the rest of the nation.
