Hyderabad: Telangana will soon introduce Japanese language education as part of a larger initiative to prepare its youth for global employment opportunities, Chief Minister Revanth Reddy announced during a video appearance at The Hindu Huddle, a national dialogue event hosted by The Hindu newspaper.

Reddy said the decision was inspired by his recent visit to Japan and reflects the government’s intent to align Telangana’s human capital development with international trends. The goal, he added, is to train a workforce that can meet specific demands of countries like Japan seeking skilled talent under “One Plus One” strategic investment models.

The Chief Minister said Telangana’s governance model is now being recognised across India, particularly for its inclusive policies and emphasis on social justice. “The Centre is compelled to acknowledge the Telangana model,” he claimed, highlighting schemes that combine economic development with equity.

Among the major announcements, Revanth Reddy outlined a slew of infrastructure and development plans: tax waivers on electric vehicles, the construction of a 360-km Regional Ring Road, and inner industrial corridors to boost sectors like IT, EVs, and manufacturing. Plans also include dry ports and logistics hubs to attract more investment over ₹2 lakh crore secured so far.

He said the state is committed to ensuring access to quality education, modern employment skills, and basic amenities. Special attention is being paid to youth empowerment with the establishment of a Skill University, a Sports University, and the transformation of 105 ITIs into Advanced Training Centres (ATCs) in partnership with Tata Technologies.

Social inclusion remains central. Over 67 lakh women in self-help groups are being involved in solar energy production, school operations, and uniform delivery. Free bus travel for women via RTC and agricultural reforms like ₹21,617 crore worth of farmer loan waivers in the first year are part of Telangana’s vision.

He added that paddy procurement includes ₹500 per quintal bonus on top of the MSP, placing Telangana as the top rice-producing state in the country. Over 59,000 government jobs have been filled so far, prioritising unemployed youth.

Responding to questions about the delimitation of Lok Sabha constituencies, Reddy clarified that Telangana is not against the process itself but demands a transparent framework. “All political parties should be consulted before implementation,” he insisted. He warned that punishing high-growth states in the name of delimitation would be unjust and called for a fair, equitable approach.

The CM also stressed that recent surveys conducted in the state on educational, social, and economic lines covering BC, SC, ST, minority, and EWS groups—have set a benchmark for data-driven governance. Residential schools are being redesigned to foster social cohesion from an early age.
