Big promises by Telangana government!!

So after the state’s takeover of Metro Phase‑1 (big move, still watching how it plays out), now we’ve got another ambitious headline,

Telangana unveils tourism projects worth ₹15,279 crore as part of its 2025–2030 tourism policy.

On paper, it looks good:

1.) 30+ mega and niche tourism projects

2.) Cruise at Muchukunda river, tiger safari at Vikarabad, wellness resorts in Ananthagiri, vineyard & winery concepts

3.) Private partnerships with BookMyShow, Oyo, IRCTC etc.

Bold claim: Tourism to become 10% of Telangana’s GDP, generate 50,000+ jobs

And of course, the pitch: this will create demand in “non-core” areas, enhance infrastructure, improve last-mile connectivity and boost real estate value around these newly tagged destinations.

As someone from Telangana, I hope this government goes forward with both these projects instead of leaving them on papers like many more, both of them can boost much needed social infra for the state
