02 May 2024 CW Team

Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy announced the state government?s ambitious plan to revitalise the Musi riverfront, stating that Rs 1 trillion would be allocated for the project. He made this announcement while addressing a gathering at a street corner in Rajendranagar in support of Congress candidate G Ranjith Reddy for the Chevella Lok Sabha seat.

Revanth pledged to spearhead efforts to combat pollution in the area, thereby enhancing the land value. He outlined plans to develop Himayath Sagar and Osman Sagar, alongside transforming Vikarabad into a prominent tourist destination. Emphasising the importance of electing a reliable representative like Ranjith Reddy to Parliament, he stated that this would facilitate securing funds from the Centre for Chevella?s development.

He remarked that Chevella set a precedent for transformative changes in the country after former Chief Minister YS Rajasekhara Reddy embarked on his historic padayatra from Chevella to Icchapuram. Upon assuming office, Rajasekhara Reddy introduced groundbreaking schemes such as crop loan waivers, fee reimbursement, and Arogyasri. Revanth stated that winning here is paramount for Congress due to these reasons.
