Congress government upgrading rural infrastructure in Telangana: Shabbir Ali
Hyderabad: Senior Congress leader and Telangana government advisor Mohammed Ali Shabbir said the Congress government is rapidly upgrading rural infrastructure in Telangana, with development visible in neglected areas like Kamareddy.
New road works launched in Kamareddy
Shabbir Ali made the statement while launching several civic works in Kamareddy municipality on Tuesday. He inaugurated cement concrete (CC) road projects in Wards 4, 8, 29, 31, and 32. He said the Congress administration is prioritising civic improvements in smaller towns.
“The Congress government is not here for symbolic politics. Roads, drainage, education, and civic facilities are being improved across Telangana,” he told residents at corner meetings in Wards 4 and 29.
He said this was the beginning of a wider rollout. Every colony and municipal division would soon benefit from the government’s development model.
Public response and party presence
Shabbir Ali said the new works reflect growing public trust in governance. Years of neglect, he claimed, are being reversed.
Large numbers of residents, party workers, and civic leaders attended the events. Those present included former DCC president Kailash Srinivas, Mandal Congress president Gudem Srinivas, Town Congress president Pandla Raju, Market Committee chairman Raja Goud, and NRI Cell (Kuwait) chairman Parvez. Several former municipal councillors also joined the programme.
Shabbir Ali thanked local residents and assured them that issues such as poor sanitation, irregular water supply, and blocked drains would be addressed in phases.
Indiramma housing and school visit
He said people in Harijanwada, Azampura, and two other localities had recently moved into Indiramma houses allotted by the Congress government. As a goodwill gesture, he gifted clothes to the new occupants.
Later in the day, he visited the Mahatma Jyotiba Phule Telangana BC Welfare Residential Girls’ School in Kamareddy. He met the principal and reviewed the condition of classrooms and facilities. He then called BC Welfare Secretary Saidulu and urged him to take swift action.
Supporting students and calling for grassroots governance
Shabbir Ali also met four students from the school who had represented Telangana in national-level hockey. He gave them ₹10,000 from his personal funds to help them buy sports equipment.
“Our government believes in nurturing talent and empowering girls through education and sports,” he said. “This is participatory governance—people and the party working together.”
He said the Congress government is committed to inclusive development, especially in backward and marginalised regions. He listed key initiatives such as free bus travel for women, ration card distribution, and improved rural infrastructure in Telangana as early signs of the Revanth Reddy administration’s approach.
