Deputy Chief Minister Mallu Bhatti Vikramarka has reiterated that plans were afoot to scale up Telangana’s current economy from $200 billion to $1 trillion by 2034, and eventually into a massive $3 trillion economy by 2047.

He outlined the plans initiated by the government to elevate Telangana’s economy to international standards and deliver welfare benefits to every household.

Highlighting the integrated approach of all round development, he said, “The State’s economy has been categorised into three segments – ‘Cure, Pure, and Rare’ to kickstart planned and structured growth.
