Earlier, speaking at the forum, Chief Minister spoke of the extraordinary opportunities that await global investors in Telangana. 'We have had several governments for a decade run by the Congress, or other parties, but we have all supported investments and investors for the last 35 years.'

'I represent India's youngest, most exciting and successful states, Telangana. Hyderabad is located centrally. It has no major security risks. It has great weather, and world-class infrastructure. We are the gateway to entire Indian market, and major destination for GCCs. Come and invest in my state,' he said.

Listing the achievements of the Congress government in the last 23 months, he said, 'My biggest focus for the future includes economic empowerment of women, best education and skills and urban development, particulary making Hyderabad a truly world-class city, with best amenities and highest quality of living.'

Inviting top global academic institutions, Chief Minister Revanth Reddy said, 'Once Harvard, Stanford or Oxford sets up an offshore campus in Hyderabad, many students from the Global South can attend these ivy-league programs because of easier visa rules and lower costs.'

Pitching top projects like Bharat Future city and River Musi rejuvenation, he said, 'Bharat Future City will be India's most developed, world-class city, in 30,000 acres. After rejuvenation, Musi river riverfront will match the experience of London, Tokyo, Dubai or Seoul. It will add night economy cycle for the city.'

Besides explaining the projects to create a dry port and Hyderabad metro rail, regional ring road and radial roads, and manufacturing zone between RRR and ORR, Reddy said, 'Telangana is aiming to becoming the global answer to the China +1 alternative.'

He ended his speech, saing, 'We will name important roads in Hyderabad after corporates. In India, most roads are named after political leaders. Let us change that in Hyderabad to have Google or Meta or TCS Infosys Street.' (ANI)
