Revanth Reddy Applauds Naidu’s Role in Hyderabad’s Growth
Revanth Reddy Applauds Chandrababu Naidu’s Role in Hyderabad’s Growth at Davos
The development of Hyderabad into a global city owes much to the visionary leadership of former Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu during the 1990s in united Andhra Pradesh. Naidu’s emphasis on IT and social infrastructure laid the foundation for Hyderabad’s Growth into an international hub.
This sentiment was echoed by Telangana Chief Minister Revanth Reddy during his address at the ongoing World Economic Forum (WEF) in Davos, where he shared the stage with Chandrababu Naidu and Maharashtra CM Devendra Fadnavis.
Revanth Reddy’s Acknowledgment on Hyderabad’s Growth
While speaking at a conclave in Davos, Revanth Reddy praised Chandrababu Naidu’s role in shaping Hyderabad’s future. He remarked:
“The IT boom created in the 90s by Chandrababu Garu played a pivotal role in turning Hyderabad into the global destination it is today. This effort was complemented by Rajasekhar Reddy Garu. Both leaders contributed immensely to Hyderabad’s development. The IT architecture and social infrastructure established back then continue to yield rewards even now.”
Revanth’s acknowledgment highlights the lasting impact of Chandrababu Naidu’s policies on Hyderabad’s rise. It also validates the ongoing discussions regarding Naidu’s role in shaping the city’s global identity.
A Lighthearted Exchange
During the session, Revanth Reddy expressed Telangana’s ambition to achieve a $1 trillion economy in the future, similar to Andhra Pradesh’s goals. This led to a humorous moment when Chandrababu Naidu responded, “Unfortunately, both Maharashtra and Telangana are rich states, while I am poor. It’s going to be hard work, but we’ll strive to make it happen.”
Conclusion
The camaraderie and mutual respect displayed by the three leaders at Davos reflect a shared vision for economic growth and development. Revanth Reddy’s public recognition of Chandrababu Naidu’s contributions further emphasizes the importance of collaborative efforts in driving regional progress.
The session at the WEF not only highlighted Hyderabad’s journey to global prominence but also underscored the need for continued innovation and leadership to sustain this growth trajectory.
