CM Revanth Reddy Advocates for Comprehensive Underground Power Cable System in Hyderabad The Chief Minister of Telangana, Revanth Reddy, has taken a significant step toward modernizing Hyderabad’s infrastructure by calling for a detailed study on implementing a fully underground power cable system within the Outer Ring Road (ORR) limits. This initiative, aimed at enhancing the city's reliability, safety, and efficiency in power distribution, aligns with the broader vision of sustainable urban development. Exploring the Underground Cable Alternative In a directive issued to government officials, CM Reddy emphasized the importance of evaluating alternatives to relocate all types of cables, including power and communication lines, underground. This move is part of a strategic approach to tackle some of the city’s persistent challenges in power and communication infrastructure. By transitioning to an underground system, Hyderabad can achieve the following benefits: Reduction in Power Losses: Underground cables are known for their efficiency in minimizing power transmission losses, ensuring a more reliable energy supply to consumers. Theft Prevention: By eliminating overhead lines, the system reduces the potential for electricity theft, which has been a recurring issue in many urban areas. Minimized Outages from Natural Calamities: Unlike overhead lines susceptible to damage from storms, heavy rains, or falling trees, underground cables remain protected from such external factors, resulting in fewer power outages. Telangana’s Commitment to Sustainable Energy The call for underground power systems aligns seamlessly with Telangana’s Clean and Green Energy Policy-2025, which CM Revanth Reddy and Deputy Chief Minister Bhatti Vikramarka recently unveiled. This ambitious policy underscores the state’s commitment to adopting sustainable and eco-friendly energy solutions while fostering growth in renewable energy sectors. Advantages of an Underground Cable System 1. Enhanced Aesthetic Appeal One of the most visible benefits of transitioning to underground cables is the removal of unsightly overhead wires, which often clutter the cityscape. By moving these systems underground, Hyderabad can achieve a cleaner, more organized urban environment, enhancing its appeal to residents and tourists alike. 2. Improved Public Safety Overhead power lines pose safety risks, especially in densely populated urban areas. Fallen wires due to accidents or weather-related incidents can endanger lives. Underground cables, being securely buried, eliminate these risks, ensuring greater public safety. 3. Longevity and Durability Underground cables have a significantly longer lifespan compared to their overhead counterparts. Protected from environmental factors such as wind, rain, and UV radiation, these cables require less frequent maintenance and replacement, making them a cost-effective solution in the long term. 4. Support for Advanced Technology With the increasing demand for high-speed internet and advanced communication technologies, underground cable systems can provide the necessary infrastructure to support next-generation services. By integrating power and communication lines, the city can prepare for a technologically advanced future. Challenges and Solutions While the benefits of underground power cables are numerous, the implementation process presents certain challenges: High Initial Costs The installation of underground cables involves substantial upfront investment. However, these costs are offset by reduced maintenance expenses and the long-term reliability of the system. Government subsidies and public-private partnerships can also help mitigate financial barriers. Technical Complexity Laying underground cables requires careful planning and advanced engineering solutions. Employing cutting-edge technologies and collaborating with global experts can ensure successful implementation. Potential Disruption During Installation The process of transitioning to an underground system may temporarily disrupt daily life in certain areas. Comprehensive planning, public awareness campaigns, and phased implementation can minimize inconveniences. A Step Toward a Greener Hyderabad CM Revanth Reddy’s proposal reflects a forward-thinking approach to urban development, prioritizing sustainability and efficiency. By adopting an underground cable system, Hyderabad stands to benefit from improved energy distribution, enhanced safety, and a more aesthetically pleasing urban landscape. As Telangana continues to lead in implementing green energy initiatives under its Clean and Green Energy Policy-2025, the proposed underground cable system represents another milestone in the state’s journey toward a cleaner, greener, and more resilient future. The collaboration between government authorities, industry stakeholders, and the public will be crucial in turning this vision into reality. Conclusion The transition to an underground power cable system in Hyderabad is a transformative step that promises to reshape the city’s infrastructure and energy landscape. By addressing challenges head-on and leveraging innovative solutions, Telangana can set a benchmark for other states to follow, cementing its position as a leader in sustainable urban development.

Dil Raju Issues an Apology to Telangana People: A Detailed Clarification Prominent film producer Dil Raju has issued an apology to the people of Telangana following comments he made during the trailer launch event for the movie Sankranthiki Vasthunam. His statements became a topic of heated debate on social media, prompting him to provide clarity and address any misunderstandings. Here’s a detailed account of the situation and his response. The Controversy: What Sparked the Debate? The trailer launch event, held in Nizamabad, marked a significant occasion as large-scale film events are rare in the region. During his speech, Dil Raju shared nostalgic anecdotes about Telangana's rich culture, including its traditional daawat (feast), mentioning popular local delicacies like mutton and toddy. However, some individuals perceived his remarks as disrespectful to Telangana’s cultural values and traditions. The comments quickly gained traction on social media, with several people criticizing him for allegedly mocking the culture. Dil Raju’s Response: A Sincere Apology In response to the backlash, Dil Raju clarified his intentions and apologized to anyone who might have been hurt by his words. “It was never my intention to disrespect Telangana’s culture. If my comments inadvertently hurt anyone’s sentiments, I sincerely apologize,” said Dil Raju during a media interaction. He further explained that his speech highlighted his deep admiration for Telangana’s traditions and cuisine. His mention of missing the traditional feasts was meant as a light-hearted reflection and not an insult. A Personal Connection to Telangana Dil Raju, a native of Nizamabad, emphasized his strong ties to the region. Reflecting on his journey, he mentioned how his connection with the local culture has influenced his filmmaking career. He recounted his experiences with Fidaa and Balagam, two movies that celebrated Telangana’s essence: Fidaa, a blockbuster film, showcased family values and cultural nuances unique to Telangana. Balagam resonated deeply with the local audience, receiving widespread acclaim for its authentic portrayal of rural Telangana life. Both films were embraced as cultural landmarks, with audiences and political leaders across party lines applauding their portrayal of Telangana. Reiterating Respect for Telangana’s Heritage Dil Raju emphasized his admiration for Telangana and urged people to understand the true context of his remarks. He added: “As someone who has lived and grown up in this region, I hold its traditions and heritage close to my heart. My words were taken out of context, leading to unnecessary controversy.” He appealed to those who felt offended, reiterating his apology and stressing that his intentions were never to hurt anyone. Addressing Misunderstandings: A Call for Unity Dil Raju also spoke about his role as the Chairman of the Film Development Corporation (FDC), highlighting his efforts to bridge the gap between the film industry and the government. His focus remains on fostering a healthy environment for Telugu cinema to flourish, particularly in Telangana. He urged political parties not to drag him into unnecessary controversies, stating: “My goal is to contribute to the growth of the film industry and create opportunities for aspiring talents in Telangana. The FDC is a non-political entity, and I appeal to everyone to refrain from associating me with political agendas.” Conclusion: A Lesson in Cultural Sensitivity This incident serves as a reminder of the importance of cultural sensitivity, especially in public discourse. While Dil Raju’s remarks may have been unintended, his prompt apology and clarification demonstrate accountability. The film industry plays a pivotal role in reflecting and celebrating regional cultures. As such, it is crucial for stakeholders to navigate these discussions with care and respect. Dil Raju’s dedication to Telangana’s growth—both as a cultural hub and as a thriving center for cinema—remains steadfast. His heartfelt apology underscores his commitment to maintaining harmony and mutual respect within the community. Telangana State

Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy has made it clear that his government is steadfastly focused on two primary objectives: the welfare of the poor and the comprehensive development of the state. Addressing a conference with district collectors at the Secretariat, he emphasized the pivotal role these officials play in building trust and ensuring that governance remains people-centric. Let’s delve into the key highlights of the Chief Minister’s address, which underlines his administration’s commitment to transparency, accountability, and effective welfare delivery. The Role of District Collectors in Governance CM Revanth Reddy described district collectors as the government’s frontline representatives, emphasizing their critical role in shaping public perception and implementing welfare schemes. He lauded their efforts in completing the recent socio-economic, educational, employment, and political caste census, which serves as a cornerstone for future planning and resource allocation. The Chief Minister stressed that the efficiency of district collectors directly reflects the government’s performance. He urged them to continuously refine their work methods, step out of their offices, and engage with communities through field visits. These efforts, he said, are essential to addressing issues at the grassroots level effectively. Field Visits and Strengthened Accountability To ensure the welfare schemes reach the intended beneficiaries, CM Reddy announced his plan to conduct surprise inspections during district visits starting after January 26. He issued a stern warning against administrative negligence, promising stringent action where necessary. Additionally, he directed women IAS and IPS officers to visit girls' hostels monthly and spend nights there to better understand and resolve the challenges faced by students. This move aims to strengthen the government’s commitment to the welfare of young women and students. Celebrating Republic Day with New Schemes As India prepares to celebrate 75 years of the Constitution on Republic Day, the Chief Minister revealed plans to launch four significant welfare schemes: Bharosa (Farmer Support): Increasing financial aid to ₹12,000 per acre, reinforcing the government’s commitment to empowering farmers. Athmeya Bharosa (Empathetic Support for the Poor): Providing annual cash assistance of ₹12,000 to landless agricultural laborers. New Ration Cards: Ensuring eligible beneficiaries receive their due entitlements. Housing for the Homeless: Constructing and allotting houses to support the homeless poor. The responsibility for implementing these transformative schemes rests with district collectors, who are tasked with conducting gram sabhas (village meetings) and ward meetings to finalize beneficiary lists. Transparency and Accountability in Welfare Programs CM Revanth Reddy highlighted irregularities in previous administrations’ welfare programs, such as the Raithu Bandhu scheme, where assistance was extended for non-agricultural lands. To prevent such issues, he directed collectors to ensure that only eligible farmers benefit under the Raithu Bharosa scheme. Field inspections and the appointment of nodal officers for each district and mandal will aid in identifying ineligible beneficiaries. The Chief Minister clarified that all agricultural lands—whether cultivated or not—would be covered under the scheme, excluding non-agricultural plots such as real estate. This approach ensures the scheme’s resources are allocated to deserving individuals. Indiramma Athmeya Bharosa: Supporting Landless Laborers The government’s commitment to uplifting marginalized communities is evident in the launch of the Indiramma Athmeya Bharosa scheme. This initiative offers annual financial aid of ₹12,000 to landless laborers working at least 20 days under the MGNREGS program. The CM announced that the Indiramma app has already identified 18.32 lakh eligible beneficiaries, with priority given to the most disadvantaged. In the first phase, 3,500 houses per constituency will be allotted to those in need. Key Directives for District Collectors To ensure seamless implementation of these schemes, the Chief Minister outlined clear directives for district collectors: Publish Beneficiary Lists: Finalize and publicize the lists for all welfare schemes in gram sabhas and ward meetings. Conduct Field Inspections: Verify beneficiary details under the Raithu Bharosa scheme through on-ground inspections. Prepare for Scheme Rollouts: Complete preparatory work by January 15 under the supervision of district in-charge ministers. Coordinate with Nodal Officers: Work closely with appointed nodal officers and field-level officials to eliminate discrepancies and enhance efficiency. Building a Welfare-Centric Administration The welfare of the underprivileged and the state’s holistic development remain at the heart of CM Revanth Reddy’s vision. By prioritizing accountability, transparency, and field-level engagement, his government aims to ensure that no citizen is left behind. Through these comprehensive measures and transformative schemes, the Chief Minister’s administration is laying a strong foundation for inclusive growth and development. The focus on empowering district collectors and ensuring direct engagement with communities underscores the government’s unwavering commitment to its two guiding principles: welfare of the poor and state development.
