Revanth Reddy is also understood to have briefed Rahul Gandhi on the implementation of the Congress’ electoral promises
Hyderabad: Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy on Friday met AICC leader Rahul Gandhi in Delhi and is understood to have held detailed discussions on Telangana’s development, the performance of the state government and organisational matters relating to the party.
While the Chief Minister’s Office described the meeting as a courtesy call, party sources said Revanth Reddy submitted a comprehensive report to Gandhi on the functioning of the Congress government in Telangana, which completed half its five-year term on June 6.
Revanth Reddy posted on the social media platform X: “As ever, it is energising and inspiring to meet my leader, Shri Rahul Gandhi ji. I discussed issues relating to the development of Telangana with the Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha. And as always, his insightful feedback and direction will guide all of us.”
According to the sources, the Chief Minister briefed Gandhi on the government’s achievements during the past 30 months, highlighting growth in the state economy, gross state domestic product (GSDP), employment generation and investment inflows. Revanth Reddy reportedly informed the Congress leader that Telangana had witnessed good progress in attracting investments and creating jobs since the Congress was voted to power.
The Chief Minister also apprised Gandhi about the government’s decision to organise the Telangana Rising Global Summit every December as a flagship platform to attract global investors and multinational companies to the state. He said the inaugural Telangana Rising Global Summit held at Future City in December 2025 was a major success, resulting in several memoranda of understanding (MoUs) with global firms. A majority of these investment proposals had already moved to the implementation stage with groundwork and project activities underway, he reportedly informed.
Revanth Reddy is also understood to have briefed Rahul Gandhi on the implementation of the Congress’ electoral promises. He stated that the government had fulfilled a majority of the Six Guarantees promised during the 2023 Assembly elections and assured that the remaining commitments would be implemented during the next two-and-a-half years.
Explaining the delay in rolling out all the guarantees, the Chief Minister reportedly pointed to the financial constraints faced by the state due to what he described as an inherited debt burden exceeding `8 lakh crore from the previous BRS government. He said the state was currently spending more than `70,000 crore annually towards repayment of principal and interest liabilities, placing pressure on government finances.
On employment generation, Revanth Reddy informed Gandhi that the government had recruited more than 70,000 candidates into various departments during the last 30 months. He further stated that fresh recruitment notifications had begun to be issued from June 2 and that the government planned to fill another one lakh vacancies over the next 30 months.
