Bihar leader Tejasvi Yadav also participated in the event. At Sadar, CM courts Yadavs, promises ‘rightful share’ Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy participates in Sadar sammelan organised by Yadav community, in the city on Wednesday.
Pointing out that no previous govt had accorded state festival status to the Sadar Sammelan, Revanth said his govt had taken the initiative to recognise the celebrations officially and had also sanctioned Rs 5 crore towards organising the event.
Revanth said the Congress govt had accorded official recognition to the Sadar Sammelan by declaring it a state festival three years ago. Highlighting the govt’s social justice agenda, he said Telangana had successfully conducted a caste census in a manner that could serve as a model for the rest of the country. Recollecting the city’s historical connection with the Yadav community, Revanth said Golconda Fort was historically known as ‘Golla Konda’. He also mentioned the appointment of P Eshwaramma Yadav to the Yadagirigutta temple board and said the govt was strengthening facilities for cow protection at the Yadagirigutta goshala. Emphasising Telangana’s ambition to emerge as one of the most developed states in the country, Revanth said major initiatives such as the Musi river development programme, Metro Rail expansion and Bharat Future City would play a crucial role in achieving this vision.
He reiterated that the Congress govt was committed to ensuring that the Yadav community received its rightful share and adequate representation in political and other spheres. He noted that the community had played an important role in the development of Hyderabad and had warmly welcomed people who migrated to the city from different parts of the country. Referring to the political representation extended to the community, he noted that M Anil Kumar Yadav had been given an opportunity to serve in the Rajya Sabha, while V Naveen Yadav had been elected as an MLA. He called upon the Yadav community to extend its cooperation and support in realising the state’s development goals.
Hyderabad: Chief minister A Revanth Reddy on Wednesday called upon the Yadav community to actively partner in Telangana ’s development journey, stating that its support would be crucial for the successful implementation of flagship projects such as the Musi river rejuvenation, Metro Rail Phase II and Bharat Future City.
