PM Modi’s Plans in Telangana: What Are They?

At 11.45 am, PM Modi will make his first stop in Hyderabad, Telangana, where he will flag off the Secunderabad-Tirupati Vande Bharat Express and lay the foundation for projects worth more than Rs 11,300 crore.

According to the media, Modi will also take part in a public gathering at Hyderabad’s Parade Ground.

The Prime Minister will officially lay the foundation on five National Highway projects totaling more than Rs. 7,850 crores, including AIIMS Bibinagar. More than Rs. 1,350 crores is being spent on the construction of AIIMS Bibinagar.

Also, he will lay the groundwork for the 720 million rupee reconstruction of Secunderabad Railway Station.

In less than three months, Telangana has launched a second Vande Bharat train, the Secunderabad-Tirupati Vande Bharat Express. For those traveling to the Lord Venkateswara temple, the train will be especially helpful since it will cut the distance between the two cities’ journey times by approximately three and a half hours.

In the Hyderabad-Secunderabad region, Modi will also launch 13 new Multi-Modal Transport Service (MMTS) routes. According to a news release from Railways, it would offer commuters a quick, practical, and comfortable mode of transportation.

The doubling and electrification of the Secunderabad-Mahabubnagar project, which was finished at a cost of roughly Rs. 1,410 crores, will also be dedicated to the nation. The project would provide seamless communication and help to increase the average train speed.
