In a bid to propel the progress of the Hyderabad Regional Ring Road (RRR) project Land Acquisition for Telangana RRR Development Revanth Reddy, Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy has issued a compelling directive to officials. The focal point of this directive is the swift completion of land acquisition for the RRR within a stringent three-month timeframe. This proactive approach aims to expedite the overall development of the region, addressing both urban and rural needs.
Urban Telangana Cluster: Revamping Infrastructure Inside the Outer Ring Road (ORR)
The region enclosed by the Outer Ring Road (ORR) is set to undergo a transformation, being designated as the Urban Telangana cluster. This strategic move is part of the government’s plan to categorize the state into distinct clusters for efficient industrial growth.
Semi-Urban Cluster: Bridging the Gap Between ORR and RRR
Moving beyond the ORR, the semi-urban cluster will bridge the gap between the outer and regional ring roads. This transitional zone is pivotal for establishing a balance between urban and rural development, fostering economic progress.
Rural Cluster Beyond the Regional Ring Road
The area extending beyond the Regional Ring Road is identified as the rural cluster, emphasizing the government’s commitment to holistic development. This rural focus aligns with the broader vision of creating sustainable growth in all corners of Telangana.
Revanth Reddy’s Call to Action
Chief Minister Revanth Reddy’s urgency in expediting the RRR project is underscored by his insistence on completing the land acquisition phase within three months. This timeframe aligns with the vision of the Bharat Mala Project, specifically the RRR (North) phase, spanning an impressive 158.645 kilometers.
Overcoming Setbacks: A Nine-Month Delay
The project faced a significant setback with a nine-month halt in land acquisition, attributed to non-cooperation from the previous state government. Lack of resolution on issues raised by the National Highways Authority (NHAI) further exacerbated the situation. However, since the Congress Government’s inception, special attention has been devoted to revitalizing the stalled RRR project.
Telangana’s Three-Tiered Industrial Development Strategy
In a pioneering move, the Telangana Government is gearing up to divide the state into three distinct clusters, each fostering industrial growth in its unique way. The Urban Telangana cluster within the ORR, the semi-urban cluster bridging ORR and RRR, and the rural cluster beyond the RRR collectively form the blueprint for the state’s industrial expansion.
Fast-Tracking Development Through RRR Completion
Recognizing the pivotal role of RRR completion in fast-tracking development, Chief Minister Revanth Reddy emphasized the importance of resolving transportation issues in the semi-urban zone. Once the RRR works are finalized, the groundwork for new industries in this strategic zone will be laid.
Future Steps: Land Acquisition and Tender Invitations
To materialize this vision, officials have been directed to complete the stalled land acquisition works within the next three months. Simultaneously, tenders for RRR (North) are to be invited, ensuring a seamless progression of the project.
Government’s Commitment: Financial Support for RRR Completion
Underscoring the government’s commitment, Revanth Reddy asserted that the financial burden of completing the RRR project would be shouldered by the state. A formal request has been made to the NHAI to declare the RRR (South) portion as a national highway, signaling the government’s dedication to comprehensive infrastructure development.
In conclusion, Chief Minister Revanth Reddy’s strategic directives underscore a renewed commitment to propel the Hyderabad Regional Ring Road project forward, fostering holistic development in Telangana.
