Vision document is not just for one year or the next election, but for 2047, says Bhatti

Deputy Chief Minister Mallu Bhatti Vikramarka has asserted that the vision document to be unveiled on Tuesday is not just for one year or the next election cycle, but for 2047.

The vision rests on four pillars, a leap to $3 trillion economy with sector-by-sector and district-by-district strategies to get there, a bold new spatial planning in the form of core urban, peri urban and rural agriculture economies, deep and uncompromising commitment for inclusive growth and forward looking embrace of sustainability.

“Telangana never lacked ambition. But for too long, what we lacked was an integrated vision, a structured framework that could bind our people’s energy and aspirations together,” he said addressing the inaugural of the Telangana Rising 2047 global summit on Monday.

According to him, $3 trillion economy is not just a number, but the power to transform Telangana’s reality to fund every school, every innovation and every green initiative that future would demand. “It is a bold bet on capital and also on creativity, capability and courage,” he said.

The spatial vision CURE-PURE-RARE reimagined how the State plans to build and grow. CURE for instance is Hyderabad at its most dynamic where artificial intelligence, aerospace, genomics and industries of future would thrive. The peri urban region economy on its part is the industrial and logistical powerhouse surrounding CURE where goods are made, moved and scaled. The rural and agricultural region economy envisages transformation of farmland, forests and green lung spaces into engines of agri-entrepreneurship, eco-tourism and carbon stewardship.

“Together, these three zones stitch together every part of Telangana into a common growth story. CURE innovates, PURE delivers, and RARE sustains,” he said.

The State’s approach on inclusion is unambiguous. “From Mahila Shakti to Rythu Bharosa to Young India Residential Schools, we are not offering charity. We are building equity and this growth will leave no one behind,” he said. The goal of Net Zero by 2047 is also clear in that it envisages a State where economy and ecology are not in conflict but in collaboration.

The Deputy Chief Minister was categorical that the vision document was not written in a closed room. It was a participatory, bottom up process shaped by consultations, by sectoral experts and by feedback from civil society and ordinary citizens. “This is Telangana’s document, not the government’s alone,” he said.
