This comprehensive roadmap aims to position the Hyderabad Metropolitan Region (HMR) as a world-class global city, integrating sustainable development, economic expansion, and infrastructural innovation.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Announcing the initiative in the Legislative Assembly, IT and Industries Minister D. Sridhar Babu highlighted the Congress-led government\u2019s strategic vision for urban growth. The state has already expanded the jurisdiction of the Hyderabad Metropolitan Development Authority (HMDA) from 7,257 square kilometres to 10,472 square kilometres, a move expected to facilitate holistic development. The HMDA has been entrusted with the responsibility of devising sectoral plans to propel the region\u2019s progress. The Mega Master Plan-2050 will serve as Hyderabad\u2019s guiding framework for the next three decades, incorporating cutting-edge infrastructure, resilient urban mobility, and sustainable urbanisation principles. The plan envisions a future where economic development is seamlessly integrated with environmental stewardship, ensuring equitable growth for all sections of society. \u201cThis is not just a blueprint for expansion but a vision to transform Hyderabad into a global metropolis,\u201d Sridhar Babu stated, underscoring the government\u2019s long-term commitment to the city\u2019s evolution.<\/p>\n<p>In tandem with this master plan, the Congress government has accelerated major urban projects that promise to redefine Hyderabad\u2019s urban identity. The Musi River Rejuvenation Project, Future City initiative, Hyderabad Regional Ring Road (RRR), Hyderabad Metro Rail Phase-2, and the Hyderabad City Innovative and Transformative Infrastructure (H-CITI) Project are among the flagship developments designed to enhance connectivity and improve living standards. The H-CITI project alone, with a budget of Rs 7,032 crore, is set to modernise city infrastructure through road expansions, construction of flyovers and underpasses, and extensive stormwater drainage upgrades.<\/p>\n<p>Hyderabad\u2019s economic trajectory also remains on an upward spiral, with Telangana attracting a staggering Rs 2.9 lakh crore in investments between December 2023 and March 2025. These investments have translated into 91,000 employment opportunities, reinforcing the state\u2019s emergence as a key economic hub. The World Economic Forum (WEF) summits at Davos, alongside strategic international outreach in the US, South Korea, and Singapore, have yielded substantial commitments. The WEF Davos 2025 summit alone secured Rs 1.78 lakh crore in investments, while the US and South Korea delegations brought in Rs 34,500 crore. Hyderabad has also cemented its position as a global corporate centre, now hosting 20 per cent of India\u2019s Global Capability Centres (GCCs). Over the past year, 70 new GCCs have been established, with major expansions from industry giants such as Microsoft, Cognizant, HCL, Infosys, and Wipro. The life sciences sector has seen an unprecedented boom, with more than 140 new projects worth Rs 36,000 crore, including the expansion of Genome Valley and Green Pharma City, which alone secured Rs 10,705 crore in investments from 17 companies.<\/p>\n<p>In the manufacturing sector, Hyderabad\u2019s industrial prowess continues to expand. Investments from Hyundai, Premier Energies, Lenskart, JSW, and Tata-Safran have reinforced Telangana\u2019s reputation as a preferred destination for industries. The NIMZ Zaheerabad industrial zone, spanning 3,400 acres, has attracted Rs 2,500 crore in investment, while industrial corridors along the Hyderabad-Vijayawada National Highway are set to accelerate economic activity in the region. The Congress government\u2019s strategic urban and industrial initiatives, anchored in the Mega Master Plan-2050, represent a paradigm shift in urban governance. By prioritising sustainable development, resilient infrastructure, and economic inclusivity, Telangana is poised to redefine Hyderabad\u2019s identity as a leading global city, setting a benchmark for equitable urban growth in India.<\/p>\n<h2>Hyderabads urban future takes shape with master plan<\/h2>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hyderabad drafts Mega Master Plan to shape global city vision The Telangana government has embarked on a transformative journey to redefine Hyderabad\u2019s urban landscape with<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":37111,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[146,147,148],"tags":[623,12293,573,4872,794,68865,7679,204,6497,333],"class_list":["post-37102","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-latest","category-news","category-urban-news","tag-economic-growth","tag-hmda","tag-hyderabad","tag-hyderabad-metro","tag-infrastructure","tag-mega-master-plan","tag-real-estate","tag-sustainable-cities","tag-telangana","tag-urban-development"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/livzzy.in\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/37102","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/livzzy.in\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/livzzy.in\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/livzzy.in\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/livzzy.in\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=37102"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/livzzy.in\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/37102\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/livzzy.in\/index.php?rest_route=\/"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/livzzy.in\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=37102"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/livzzy.in\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=37102"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/livzzy.in\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=37102"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
