PM Modi Launches Rs 9,400 Crore Development Projects In Telangana

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday unveiled, inaugurated, and laid foundation stones for development projects worth ₹9,400 crore in Telangana at a programme organised at the Hyderabad International Convention Centre in Cyberabad.

During the event, Telangana Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy sought increased support from the Centre and referred to the ‘Gujarat model’ developed when PM Modi served as Gujarat Chief Minister under the Congress-led government at the Centre. He expressed hope that Telangana would receive similar backing to achieve the target of becoming a $1 trillion economy by 2034 and a $3 trillion economy by 2047.

Responding to the Chief Minister’s remarks, PM Modi stated, “Revanth Ji had said that he will not talk about politics. So, I too will not talk about it. And therefore, on a non-political matter, I would like to tell Revanth Ji that I am ready to give you as much as the Government of India had given to Gujarat during those 10 years (of Congress rule). But from my knowledge, I can tell you that as soon as I do this, whatever you are getting will be halved. Wherever you want to reach, you will not be able to reach.”

The Prime Minister further asserted, “We firmly believe that in a democracy, it is not wrong to have governments of different parties in different states. The development of states is essential for the country’s development. The country cannot develop without the development of states.”

PM Modi assured Telangana residents that the Central government would continue working at a faster pace to fulfil public aspirations. He pointed out that before Andhra Pradesh’s bifurcation in 2014, the railway budget for the undivided state remained below ₹1,000 crore.

“Today, Telangana alone has a railway budget of around Rs 5,500 crore. Currently, railway projects worth nearly Rs 50,000 crore are underway. Today, five Vande Bharat and six Amrit Bharat trains are operating in Telangana,” the Prime Minister noted.

The Prime Minister dedicated Indian Oil’s Malkapur Terminal Project to the nation. He also highlighted the importance of strengthening India’s energy security.

“Today, every person in the world understands the importance of energy security. That is why our Central government is making unprecedented investments in India’s energy security,” PM Modi said.

The Prime Minister added that the Malkapur terminal would strengthen fuel supply systems and help meet Telangana’s increasing energy requirements.

“In the last few years, India has emerged among the leading countries in solar power. Unprecedented progress has been made in ethanol blending with petrol. We have focused extensively on LPG coverage and CNG to tackle the global energy crisis. However, the need of the hour is to use petrol, diesel and gas with utmost restraint,” the Prime Minister stated.

PM Modi described Cyberabad as an important centre for economic and technological growth at both national and international levels.

“Cyberabad is a centre of rapid development for Telangana and the country. Today, several major projects are being launched from here to make Telangana a major manufacturing powerhouse for the country. These projects will create thousands of new jobs and strengthen Telangana’s connectivity,” he said.

The Prime Minister also inaugurated the Zaheerabad Industrial Area under the Hyderabad-Nagpur Industrial Corridor and virtually launched the PM MITRA Park in Warangal. He said the projects would encourage industrial investment, boost textile manufacturing, and generate employment opportunities across the state.
