BRS has 25-yr roadmap for Telangana’s future: KTR

Hyderabad: Stating that the BRS had already prepared a roadmap for Telangana’s future, working president KTR said the party has a clear and comprehensive vision for Telangana for the next 25 years.“The future belongs to societies that possess knowledge, innovation and foresight. BRS has a long-term blueprint for Telangana’s growth and transformation. No other political party has articulated a vision comparable to what K Chandrashekar Rao (KCR) has envisaged for the state,” KTR said.He called upon the global Telangana diaspora to actively participate in the Telangana’s development journey and said NRIs have a critical role to play in shaping Telangana’s future through investments, expertise and knowledge-sharing.Addressing the Telangana Formation Day celebrations organised jointly by the Malaysia Telugu Association and BRS NRI Malaysia chapter in Kuala Lumpur on Saturday, KTR accusing the Congress party of attempting to undermine Telangana’s development achievements through misinformation and propaganda.Outlining the party’s priorities, KTR said the next phase of Telangana’s development would focus on ensuring uninterrupted access to safe drinking water, strengthening public transportation systems, building future-ready infrastructure and leveraging emerging technologies such as Artificial Intelligence to drive economic growth.The BRS leader exuded confidence that the BRS would return to power in Telangana in 2028 and that party president KCR would once again become the chief minister.“Some leaders who know little about Telangana’s history, development, water resources and economic progress are spreading poison against the state. When times are not in our favour, even harmless creatures begin to hiss like cobras. People must remain cautious about such political cobras,” KTR remarked.KTR said Telangana’s remarkable growth story under KCR remains unmatched in the country. Comparing Telangana’s development trajectory with the success of Asian economies such as Malaysia, Singapore, South Korea, Taiwan and Vietnam, he said the state had emerged as a national model in agriculture, irrigation, industrialisation, per capita income and economic growth within a decade of its formation.“KCR transformed a migration-hit and drought-prone Telangana into one of India’s most prosperous states. Telangana’s achievements in agriculture, infrastructure, welfare and industrial development stand testimony to his visionary leadership,” he said.He urged overseas Telangana communities to remain connected to their roots while contributing to the state’s next phase of growth and transformation.
