Telangana
IT and industries minister D. Sridhar Babu urged global stakeholders to partner with Telangana, which has emerged as one of the fastest-growing states in the country, with a GDP of Rs 16.12 lakh crore at a growth rate of 10.1%—higher than the national average of 9.9% — in just a decade since its formation.
Speaking at the Global Leaders' Summit 2025, he said per capita income in Telangana stands at Rs 3.79 lakh, which is nearly 1.8 times the national average. He also said the services sector now contributes 66.3% to the state's GDP as against the national average of 55%.
He said in the past 18 months alone, the state attracted investments exceeding Rs 3 lakh crore, with just the life sciences sector drawing Rs 40,000 crore and creating over 2 lakh new jobs.
"Many doubted whether Telangana could be formed — today, it is not just a reality, it is unstoppable. These are not just numbers, they are the reflection of a new Telangana — progressive, inclusive, and future-ready," Sridhar Babu said.
Addressing delegates from around 25 countries, including Brazil, Germany, Russia, Cameroon, Malta, the UK, Bulgaria, Belgium and the UAE, he said: "While other states follow trends — Telangana creates them. So don't just come here to invest. Come to co-create. Be a part of a transformative journey."
He said Telangana was keen to collaborate globally in areas such as agro-innovation, AI-driven governance, smart healthcare systems, digital farming, future-ready education, sustainable manufacturing, and clean energy.

On ED's plea, Bombay High Court sets aside magistrate's order accepting EOW's closure report in Topsgrup case

The Bombay High Court on Wednesday set aside a magistrate court's September 2022 decision of accepting a closure report filed by the Economic Offences Wing (EOW) in a case against Topsgrup Services and Solution Limited. The Enforcement Directorate (ED) had relied on the EOW's case to register a money laundering case against Amit Chandole, a close aide of Shiv Sena minister Pratap Sarnaik, and had subsequently probed the leader. Ramesh Iyer, a former employee of Topsgrup and the original complainant, had informed the magistrate that he had no objection to the closure report, claiming that his complaint was filed 'due to a misunderstanding.' The court had then accepted the report, prompting the ED to challenge the decision before the high court. The ED's case was based on an FIR registered on October 28, 2020, based on Iyer's complaint. He had alleged that Topsgrup defrauded the Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA) of Rs 175 crore. As per the ED, the MMRDA contract awarded to Topsgrup was facilitated by Sarnaik, who allegedly received kickbacks of at least Rs 7 crore. On Wednesday, a single-judge bench of Justice Madhav Jamdar – while allowing the ED's plea – noted that the magistrate 'didn't apply mind' to the 'C' summary report (closure report) and it was accepted solely on the ground that the complainant had given no objection. The EOW had filed the C-summary report in January 2022. The order of the Chief Metropolitan Magistrate court, dated September 14, 2022, noted the EOW's submission that after reviewing witness statements and relevant documents, it concluded that no cognizable offence could be made out. The high court bench has now sent the matter back to the magistrate court, directing it to reconsider the C-summary report filed by the EOW expeditiously. The high court clarified that it had not examined the merits of the closure report and that all contentions of the parties remained 'expressly kept open.' Justice Jamdar noted that the magistrate was duty bound to apply his/her mind to the facts of the case, the closure report and accompanying material before passing an order, either accepting the report, rejecting it and taking cognisance of the offence and initiating proceedings, or ordering further investigation. 'A bare perusal of said Order dated September 14, 2022 shows that the 'C' Summary Report is accepted without application of mind and only on the ground that the First Informant has given no objection,' the high observed. The bench further noted that the question of whether the case needs to be committed to the special court under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) would arise only if the magistrate rejects the closure report and initiates proceedings. Accordingly, the high court sent the case back to the magistrate for reconsideration and disposed of the ED's plea.
