KARIMNAGAR, JULY 23, 2025: Telangana is on the threshold of a bold transformation, envisioning a dynamic and inclusive future under the able leadership of Hon’ble Chief Minister Shri Revanth Reddy. Anchored in the ambitious goal of building a $3 trillion economy by 2047, the state is charting a new path of equitable growth, transparent governance, and people-centric reforms. With a sharp focus on uplifting the marginalised, empowering youth and women, ensuring food security through initiatives like Sanna Biyyam and revitalising public distribution with new ration card entitlements, the government is laying the foundation for a resurgent Telangana. These steps, backed by robust investments in skill development, school education, and social welfare, signal a new era of visionary governance committed to realising the dreams of every citizen.
- Sanna Biyyam Scheme – Restoring Nutritional Dignity
One of the most widely appreciated moves by the new government has been the reintroduction of “Sanna Biyyam” (fine rice) through the Public Distribution System. Unlike earlier coarse grains, the provision of quality rice symbolises not just food security, but also nutritional dignity for poor families.
- Over 90 lakh beneficiaries across the state are receiving fine rice under the scheme.
- Enhanced quality is expected to reduce malnutrition, particularly among children and lactating mothers.
- This step reinstates Telangana’s commitment to inclusive welfare with dignity.
- White Ration Cards and Social Protection
The government has taken swift action in issuing new white ration cards to deserving families, ensuring no genuine household is left out of welfare schemes.
- Lakhs of pending applications have been cleared, and fresh cards are being issued.
- These cards serve as a gateway to multiple government schemes – pension, scholarships, Aasara, Aarogyasri health insurance, and more.
- This initiative also curbs ghost beneficiaries and leakages, ensuring benefits reach the right hands.
- Youth Empowerment and Skill Development
A major thrust area under Vision 2047 is empowering the youth of Telangana. CM Revanth Reddy has committed to transforming young citizens into job creators and employable professionals.
- The launch of Youth Skill Missions across districts.
- Skill development centres being upgraded with industry-linked training modules.
- Coaching support for competitive exams, IT, AI, green jobs, and soft skills.
- Introduction of monthly financial assistance to unemployed youth soon, keeping with pre-poll promises.
- Women’s Empowerment – From Beneficiaries to Leaders
Women’s welfare has gained special attention, with plans to enable their economic independence and social mobility.
- Plans to provide ₹2500 monthly assistance to eligible women under the Mahila Shakti Scheme.
- Enhanced support to Self Help Groups (SHGs) and Stree Nidhi.
- Free bus travel for women across the state in TSRTC buses.
- Setting up of Women Skill Parks, support for micro-enterprises, and leadership training for elected women representatives.

The government is working towards a farmer-centric model that ensures transparency and sustainability:
- Review of Dharani Portal to correct anomalies in land records.
- Strengthening Rythu Bharosa Kendras with real-time crop advisory and input support.
- Providing minimum support price (MSP) and regulated market support.
- Focus on sustainable cropping patterns, irrigation, and allied sectors like dairy, horticulture, and fisheries.

- Mission Telangana State Services Reform: Digitizing departments, eliminating middlemen, and tracking delivery of services.
- Proactive support to RTI Act implementation and restoration of democratic institutions like Gram Sabhas.

Keeping 2047 in mind, urban development is being aligned with the climate-resilient, inclusive and smart growth model:
- Re-planning of Hyderabad under Hyderabad Vision 2047 with green mobility, flood-proof drainage, and heritage restoration.
- Strengthening municipal services and capacity in tier-2 towns.
- Push for affordable housing, drinking water supply, and scientific solid waste management.
- Inclusive Digital Telangana
The state is moving towards a digital-first governance model where citizens can access services at fingertips:
- Upgrading Mee Seva platforms and mobile apps for service delivery.
- Planning digital ID integration across departments to avoid duplication and errors.
- Skilling rural youth in AI, coding, and digital services.
Conclusion: Telangana’s Road to 2047
The leadership of CM Shri Revanth Reddy has ushered in a people-centric, progressive, and reform-oriented era in Telangana. From ensuring food security to skill empowerment, from school education to women’s welfare – every initiative is a step towards building an equitable Telangana by 2047.
