Telangana CM Revanth Reddy fast-tracks Young India Skills University ahead of December summit
Synopsis
Key Takeaways
Telangana Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy on Monday, 19 October 2026, directed officials to accelerate construction of the Young India Skills University at Bharat Future City, Hyderabad, linking the push directly to the state's upcoming Invest Telangana Global Summit 2026. The university's campus is set to serve as the venue for the high-profile investment conclave scheduled from 7 to 9 December.
CM's Directives at Bharat Future City
During an on-site inspection of the university's construction progress, Chief Minister Revanth Reddy instructed officials to raise the pace of work and suggested augmenting the workforce if required to meet deadlines. He made clear that the open-premises work must be completed by 15 November, and that all summit preparations must be finalised by the end of November.
The Chief Minister further directed officials to constitute a dedicated committee to provide ongoing oversight of summit arrangements, and emphasised that the event must be organised to international standards capable of drawing entrepreneurs and investors from both India and overseas.
Invest Telangana Global Summit 2026: What It Is
The Invest Telangana Global Summit 2026, themed 'Your investments are safe with us', is being positioned by the Telangana government not merely as a business conference but, in the Chief Minister's own words, as 'a historic platform destined to transform the political and economic landscape of Telangana.' The summit will be hosted on the premises of the Young India Skills University at Bharat Future City — making the university's timely construction a logistical as well as symbolic imperative.
This comes amid the state government's broader push to establish Bharat Future City as a landmark development corridor near Hyderabad, drawing comparisons to similar integrated township projects undertaken in other Indian states to attract large-scale investment.
Other Inauguration and Foundation Stone Events
Before reaching Bharat Future City, Chief Minister Revanth Reddy inaugurated the newly constructed Future City Police Commissionerate in Ibrahimpatnam, opening the Commissioner of Police's office within the building and extending wishes to Commissioner Tarun Joshi.
At Bharat Future City, he also laid the foundation stone for the National Institute of Urban Management (NIUM) campus on the premises of the Future City Development Authority (FCDA) office, and examined the model of the proposed campus.
Senior Officials and Elected Representatives in Attendance
The visits were attended by Legislative Council Chief Whip Patnam Mahender Reddy; Members of Parliament Vem Narendar Reddy, Mallu Ravi, and Chamala Kiran Kumar Reddy; Members of the Legislative Assembly Malreddy Ranga Reddy, Veerlapalli Shankar, Prakash Goud, and Kale Yadaiah; chairpersons of various state corporations; Director General of Police CV Anand; and other senior officials.
With the November 15 outdoor-works deadline and the end-of-November full-preparations deadline now set, the Telangana government's ability to deliver the summit on schedule will be an early test of its investment-readiness credentials ahead of the December conclave.
