“India is making efforts to emerge as a $30 trillion economy by 2047. As India and the (Central) government are making plans to become $30 trillion, we brought the Telangana Rising 2047 policy document to make the state a partner in it, to put the state at the top,” he said.
As part of its goal, the state government has introduced several policies, including energy, tourism, industries, investments and health, he said.
All these policies together form the vision of ‘Telangana Rising 2047’. This envisions making the state compete with the world, he said.

The government aims to increase the state’s contribution to the national GDP to 10 per cent by 2047, he said. The CM urged doctors, engineers, bureaucrats, businessmen and other sections of society to support the government in its endeavour.
