Hyderabad, October 15, 2025: Telangana Industries and IT Minister D. Sridhar Babu has been invited as a chief guest at AusBiotech 2025, one of the Asia-Pacific region’s most prestigious life sciences conferences, to be held in Australia. Telangana will be the only Indian state represented at this global platform, marking a proud moment for India in the international life sciences arena. Australian Consul General Ms. Hilary McGeachy met Minister Sridhar Babu to discuss the significance of his participation at the summit. Their discussions focused on strengthening bilateral collaboration in healthcare innovation, artificial intelligence (AI), advanced manufacturing, and research partnerships between Telangana and Australia. This global recognition comes as Telangana’s life sciences ecosystem continues to flourish — attracting over ₹63,000 crore in investments in the last two years across pharma, biotech, and medtech sectors. According to a recent CBRE report, Hyderabad has been ranked among the Top 7 Global Life Sciences Clusters, the only Indian city to achieve this distinction. Under the visionary leadership of the Chief Minister and Minister Sridhar Babu, Telangana’s cooperation with Australia has grown stronger. Earlier this year, the Governor and Trade Minister of Queensland participated in BioAsia 2025 held in Hyderabad, further cementing the partnership. With an even larger Australian delegation expected for BioAsia 2026, Minister Sridhar Babu’s keynote at AusBiotech 2025 is set to deepen global collaboration and reinforce Telangana’s position as a world leader in life sciences and biotechnology innovation.

A new unified front, the BC Joint Action Committee (BC JAC), has been formed in Telangana to strengthen the ongoing movement for BC (Backward Class) reservations. The committee was launched to consolidate various BC organizations and community groups under one umbrella to fight collectively for their rights. The committee appointed R. Krishnaiah as Chairman and Jajula Srinivas Goud as Working Chairman, with VGR Naragoni as Vice Chairman, Rajaram Yadav and Dasu Suresh as Co-Chairmen, and Gujja Krishna as Coordinator. The BC JAC announced a statewide Telangana Bandh on October 18, under the banner “Bandh for Justice”, to protest the High Court’s stay on BC reservations. Earlier protests — the road blockade planned for October 13 and the state bandh on October 14 — were postponed to coordinate a larger united movement. The leaders declared that this bandh will demonstrate the strength and unity of BCs, urging all community members to rise above political and organizational divisions. During the formation meeting held at Hotel Ashoka, Hyderabad, over 40 BC associations and 110 caste-based organizations participated. Leaders criticized certain political forces for attempting to block BC reservations through legal means. R. Krishnaiah emphasized that this struggle will continue until BCs secure their rightful share in legislative representation and government jobs, calling on all BCs to fight beyond political affiliations. Working Chairman Jajula Srinivas Goud stated that although BCs make up 60% of Telangana’s population, their rights continue to be suppressed by reservation opponents. He asserted that the October 18 bandh will send a strong message to both state and central governments, showcasing BC power from “the streets to Delhi.” The newly formed JAC vowed to lay the foundation for political empowerment and unity among BC communities across Telangana.

CM Revanth Reddy Unveils Telangana Horticulture Vision 2035

Oct 10, 2025 | 605 Views

Telangana Chief Minister Revanth Reddy unveiled the State Horticulture Development Plan–2035, outlining a roadmap to expand fruit and vegetable cultivation and enhance productivity across the state. The plan, prepared by the Telangana Horticultural University, targets an expansion of 1.32 lakh acres for fruits and 2.45 lakh acres for vegetables over the next five years. It estimates that an investment of ₹921.40 crore for cultivation and ₹942.50 crore for drip irrigation could yield up to fourfold returns for farmers. The plan emphasizes integrating university-developed technologies to achieve an annual production value of ₹1,341 crore. Districts suitable for expanding fruit crops like guava, papaya, banana, pomegranate, dragon fruit, and custard apple, and vegetables like tomato, brinjal, carrot, onion, and leafy greens, were identified based on soil and climate conditions. The strategy promotes off-season vegetable cultivation, shade-net farming, and protected agriculture to ensure year-round availability. To enhance yields, the plan calls for custom hiring centers at every mandal to facilitate access to farm machinery, and the use of weather-based advisories to minimize crop losses. It also proposes establishing cold storage units, pack houses, and refrigerated transport to reduce post-harvest losses. For export promotion, an integrated pack house will be set up near Hyderabad International Airport. The government aims to empower Farmer Producer Organizations (FPOs) to manage production, marketing, and collective sales. A marketing intelligence cell will be established jointly by the Horticulture University and Agricultural Marketing Department to provide farmers with real-time price and demand forecasts, ensuring better income and reduced wastage.

Hyderabad, October 10: Telangana Jagruthi President Kalvakuntla Kavitha announced a week-long protest movement demanding justice for aspirants affected by alleged irregularities in the TSPSC Group-1 recruitment process. Speaking at a round-table meeting organized by Telangana Jagruthi at Somajiguda Press Club, Kavitha said the movement would begin with a ‘Vantavarpu’ (community cooking) program at Ashoknagar on Friday. Expressing deep concern, Kavitha said, “Even after achieving Telangana, our youth are still struggling for justice. I’m looking at the Group-1 issue as a mother, not just a politician.” She emphasized that former Chief Minister K. Chandrashekar Rao had done everything possible for students during the first decade of Telangana, but the current government’s handling of recruitment exams has deeply disappointed the youth. She urged students to stay focused on their studies while promising, “We will fight on your behalf until justice is served.” Kavitha announced five key resolutions passed during the meeting: the cancellation and re-conduction of Group-1 prelims and mains exams; ensuring implementation of the promised job calendar; filling two lakh government vacancies; a complete overhaul of the TSPSC; and revocation of G.O. 29, which she said undermines reservation policies. These resolutions will be formally sent to the Governor and Chief Minister. Condemning mainstream media’s silence on the issue, Kavitha urged journalists to amplify the voice of the unemployed. “Our legal team of 50 lawyers is ready to fight this battle in court if needed,” she added, stressing that the Telangana Jagruthi movement will extend protests to districts and villages across the state to ensure justice for students and unemployed youth.
