HYDERABAD: Deputy Chief Minister Bhatti Vikramarka Mallu stated that only a few individuals had benefitted from jobs in Telangana despite the struggle for a separate state, while the majority of the unemployed remained without opportunities over the past decade. He made these remarks at a large-scale Madhira job mela held on Monday in Madhira mandal.
He said that the current government, led by Chief Minister Revanth Reddy and his Cabinet, had resolved to prioritise employment generation for the youth. As part of this commitment, he outlined a three-tier strategy to provide jobs across the state.
Firstly, the Telangana State Public Service Commission was restructured and a job calendar was released, he said. In the first year alone, 56,000 government posts were filled, and efforts are underway to recruit an additional 30,000.
Secondly, Bhatti Vikramarka said that the state aims to leverage globalisation by creating infrastructure for multinational companies (MNCs), enabling large-scale employment. To attract investment, CM Revanth Reddy and Industries Minister Sridhar Babu visited Davos, where they signed agreements worth ₹1.8 lakh crore. He noted that the CM is currently on a visit to Japan to further pursue investments and employment opportunities for the state’s youth.
Thirdly, the Deputy CM said the government had launched the Rajiv Yuva Vikasam scheme with ₹9,000 crore in funding. Appointment letters for the selected candidates under this programme will be distributed across the state on Telangana Formation Day, June 2. He emphasised that such large-scale budget allocations for employment schemes were unprecedented in the state’s history.
Highlighting the importance of future-oriented planning, Bhatti Vikramarka recalled how former Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi had envisioned the IT revolution, and how then Congress CM Nedurumalli Janardhana Reddy laid the foundation for Hyderabad’s Hi-Tech City in alignment with that vision.
He announced plans to establish another Knowledge City in Hyderabad to create jobs for five lakh young people. He said that job melas help graduates take the first step towards self-reliance and should be seen as the beginning of a broader career path.
At the Madhira job mela, he said 5,000 individuals secured employment in a single day. He stressed that the youth are a valuable resource for the state and can significantly contribute to GDP growth, family well-being, and societal progress. He cautioned young people against falling into the trap of substance abuse or anti-social influences and urged them to ensure that their parents do not suffer in their later years.
He added that good intentions, when executed well, lead to good outcomes. For those unable to secure jobs due to a lack of technical skills, 65 Industrial Training Institutes (ITIs) across the state are being transformed into advanced technology centres.
To provide world-class education for underprivileged students, the government is launching Young India Integrated Residential Schools. An allocation of ₹11,600 crore has been made for the simultaneous construction of 60 Young India International Schools, which will offer free quality education from Grade 4 to Intermediate level. Bhatti Vikramarka said that no previous administration had made such a large one-time allocation for the education sector. The government is also upgrading public high schools with comprehensive infrastructure facilities.
