CM Revanth envisions 'Gateway of Hyderabad'
Top officials said that the Chief Minister proposed to develop the Musi Rejuvenation Project in the Hyderabad Core Urban City Area in a highly sophisticated manner with multiple benefits and attractions. As part of it, the Gateway of Hyderabad will be built along ORR near the proposed Gandhi Sarovar at Himayat Sagar. An eco-park will be developed on the one side of ORR and an iconic tower on the other side towards Bapu Ghat. The iconic tower to be built at Gandhi Sarovar will be the tallest tower in the world. The Chief Minister directed the officials to also work on building an elevated gateway to facilitate travel to the eco-park and the iconic tower, which is being called 'the Gateway of Hyderabad'. The area around the Bapu Ghat will be transformed into 'a world-class zone' to impress everyone.
A new flyover from the approach road near the Himayat Sagar to Attapur will be a connective corridor around the Gandhi Sarovar. The Chief Minister wanted this connectivity to be such that people can reach the Gandhi Sarovar directly from the airport.
Revanth Reddy said that the Musi Rejuvenation Project should facilitate flood water management. The officials have been asked to conduct a study of such projects in other countries. The available water in Osman Sagar and Himayat Sagar should be used to meet drinking water needs of Hyderabad City. The Chief Minister suggested that huge underground water storage sumps be constructed on both sides of the Musi catchment area and arrangements made to lift water from there. The Chief Minister asked the officials to conduct water flow studies for developing the Gandhi Sarovar on par with international benchmarks.

CM Revanth Reddy unveils plan for Gateway of Hyderabad with world-class tower at Gandhi Sarovar
HYDERABAD: A 'Gateway of Hyderabad' is to be constructed on the Outer Ring Road (ORR) at the proposed Gandhi Sarovar near Himayathsagar, as part of the Musi Riverfront Development Project. During a review meeting on Saturday, Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy instructed officials to create an eco-theme park on one side of the ORR and a large iconic tower on the other, facing Bapu Ghat. An elevated structure linking the two will form the 'Gateway of Hyderabad.' According to official sources, the chief minister has called for design proposals for both the gateway and the tower. He said the Bapu Ghat area should be developed into a world-class attraction, suggesting that the tower could be the tallest in the world, subject to feasibility and site conditions. To improve connectivity, the chief minister proposed a new flyover from the approach road near Himayathsagar to Attapur, offering a direct link from Rajiv Gandhi International Airport to Gandhi Sarovar. Revanth also said the Musi project should be planned to both control floods and supply drinking water. He asked officials to study international models for such projects and stressed on efficient use of water from Osmansagar and Himayathsagar to meet the city's needs. Plans include large underground water storage sumps on both sides of the Musi catchment area, with systems to transport water from these facilities. The chief minister directed that international-standard water flow studies be undertaken for the Gandhi Sarovar development and that work be expedited to allow tender invitations within two months.

Iconic Gateway of Hyderabad to come up near Himayatsagar
A 'Gateway of Hyderabad' will be built on the Outer Ring Road (ORR) near Gandhi Sarovar at Himayatsagar to welcome tourists from across the country. An eco-theme park will be developed on one side of the ORR, while a massive iconic tower will be erected towards the Bapu Ghat side. The designs will integrate an elevated gateway connecting both structures, serving as a symbolic entrance to the city. Officials said that Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy wanted the Bapu Ghat area to be developed into a world-class zone to attract visitors. A new flyover will be built from the Himayatsagar approach road towards Attapur, functioning as a connective corridor around Gandhi Sarovar. This link will enable direct access from the airport to the Gandhi Sarovar, the officials explained. Highlighting the vision for grandeur, Mr. Revanth Reddy proposed that the iconic tower at Gandhi Sarovar should aim to be the tallest in the world, subject to feasibility and site conditions. The Chief Minister also directed officials to execute the Musi River Rejuvenation Project in the core urban areas of Hyderabad with multiple benefits and world-class standards. The Musi rejuvenation initiative will also integrate drinking water supply, floodwater management, and advanced water storage solutions. Plans include constructing large underground water storage sumps on both banks of the river basin, ensuring optimal water transport. The Chief Minister directed the officials to study successful international models before finalising the designs. Mr. Reddy also directed officials to ensure that Osmansagar and Himayatsagar's water resources be optimally utilised to meet Hyderabad's growing drinking water needs. Water flow studies for Gandhi Sarovar will be conducted thoroughly before starting international-standard development works. To fast-track implementation, the Chief Minister has ordered that tendering be completed within two months.
