“My job is to promote Telangana and bring investment and create jobs for the people of Telangana. We will establish deeper connections with the UK in the days to come,” he added.
“If you are thinking of setting up your company in Telangana, I urge you to think of setting up your offices in tier II towns and not just Hyderabad,” the Telangana minister said.
“Contribute back to your motherland by supporting us in the creation of wealth, and employment opportunities, and ensure we motivate others back home. Let’s ensure the growth story continues,” KTR said.
The minister mentioned that the Telangana government has already inaugurated IT Towers in Khammam, and Karimnagar and will soon inaugurate IT Towers in Mahabubnagar and Nizamabad.

He also stated that the world’s largest Amazon campus is situated in Hyderabad. He said, “Google, Facebook, Micron, Apple, Qualcomm, Uber, Salesforce, and Novartis – all of their second largest campuses are in Hyderabad and they all have come in the last six years. They have chosen Telangana because of its stable leadership and able governance.”
The minister said that Telangana’s per capita income was Rs 1,24,000 in 2014 which had risen by 130 per cent to Rs 2,78,000 in seven years.
“GSDP was 5.6 lakh crore rupees in 2014. And today it is 11.54 lakh crore rupees now. These are the numbers given by the Ministry of statistics and program implementation of the Government of India,” he added.
