Industrial Day: KTR opens Telangana Skill Development Centre at Green Industrial Park

Hyderabad: As part of the ongoing 21 days of celebrations commemorating the formation of Telangana, the Telangana Industrialists Federation’s (TIF) Skill Development Centre and Common Facility Centre at TIF MSME Green Industrial Park was inaugurated at Dandu Malkapur on Tuesday.

The minister also inaugurated 51 Industrial Units (MSMEs) and Industrial Area Local Authority office.

During the inaugural event, Minister for Municipal Administration and Urban Development KT Rama Rao highlighted the remarkable achievements of Telangana under the leadership of Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao. The minister said, “Our state takes immense pride in its transparency and efficiency when it comes to industrial development. The TS iPass system has become a model for others to emulate, ensuring swift permissions and fostering a business-friendly environment.”

Furthermore, he highlighted Telangana’s commitment to environmental sustainability through the Harita Haram program, which has gained recognition as the second-largest afforestation program in human history. The state’s villages have been awarded 30 national-level accolades for rural governance, while its towns have also received recognition at a national level.

KTR also drew attention to the stark contrast between Telangana’s uninterrupted power supply and power cuts still prevalent in certain states like Gujarat. “Telangana is synonymous with greenery and is the only state with a green budget,” he said.

He credited CM KCR’s forward-thinking and dedication to future generations for the state’s unparalleled progress. He further acknowledged that the work accomplished in the past nine years under KCR’s leadership surpasses the progress made in the previous six decades.

Telangana’s achievements extend to various sectors, including increased IT exports and record-breaking grain yields. In line with the state’s commitment to fostering skilled labour, KTR announced plans to provide skill training to thousands of youths through the newly established Skill Building Centre at Dandu Malkapur Park.
