Hyderabad: Telangana IT and Industries Minister Duddilla Sridhar Babu said that ‘Our World Institute’ would be developed into a powerful global think tank dedicated to research on international affairs, policy discussions and exploring solutions to global challenges.

He said the institute was launched on the platform of the Bharat Summit to translate Rahul Gandhi’s vision and ideas into action. The Minister participated in the concluding session of the ‘Bharat Summit – 2026’, held at HITEX on Saturday.

Speaking on the occasion, Sridhar Babu said that the summit featured 12 international panel discussions at HICC and eight special ‘Telangana Rising’ sessions at HITEX, covering a wide range of subjects.

Representatives from various countries, intellectuals and experts participated in discussions on artificial intelligence, equity in the global economy, climate change, peace, the future of media and the functioning of democratic institutions, among other issues.

Despite differences in perspectives, there was a shared recognition of the need to build a future world that is more equitable, upholds democratic values and is guided by a human-centric approach, he said.

The Minister observed that the summit had brought both recognition and responsibility to Telangana. The State was demonstrating that it is possible to remain globally connected while staying firmly committed to social justice. Telangana was also showing that development, welfare and the self-respect of people could progress together, he added.

The Minister invited delegates and representatives from India and abroad to attend the prestigious ‘Telangana Rising Global Summit 2.0’, which the State Government will organise from December 7 to 9.
