Kishan Reddy seeks CM Revanth's partnership to take up green energy plants under Coal Ministry
In an official communication to the Chief Minister, a copy of which was released to the media on Thursday, the Union Minister said these initiatives are projected to attract investments in the range of ₹10,000 crore to TG over the next three years.
The proposals are for development of solar power plants utilising Telangana's high solar isolation zones, deployment of advanced BESS systems to enhance grid stability and energy reliability; pre-feasibility studies and implementation of PSPs to provide critical balancing capacity; and formation of joint venture models with State PSUs or on a standalone basis by the coal companies, to ensure faster project execution and maximize local economic benefits.
All these proposals and projects would require support in the acquisition or allocation of land by the State Government. They would be instrumental in the reduction of carbon emissions, improved air quality, and sustainable natural resource management, he said.
Mr. Kishan Reddy, also the Secunderabad MP, said that the proposals also offer substantial socio-economic dividends, including job creation, skill development, enhanced energy security, and affordable power access, driving inclusive growth and improved quality of life for all.
To take these projects to fruition, he has requested that a structured and seamless coordination be established between the State Government and the CPSUs. This can be done with the Chief Minister's 'active and timely engagement' and interventions in ensuring swift and effective implementation of these projects.
'Your leadership in this matter can serve as a model for constructive Centre-State cooperation in building a greener and self-reliant future,' he said.
Telangana's substantial renewable energy potential and the Central Government's unwavering commitment to green growth, offers an opportunity to accelerate the State's economic development and position the State as a key contributor to India's sustainable energy transition, he pointed out.

'Has given a clean chit to Pakistan': Union Minister Pralhad Joshi criticises P Chidambaram for his remarks on Pahalgam attack
Union Minister Pralhad Joshi on Monday criticised former Home Minister P Chidambaram 's remarks on Operation Sindoor , a military action taken by India in response to the Pahalgam terror attack. Joshi accused Chidambaram of giving a "clean chit" to Pakistan, suggesting that Chidambaram 's comments could embolden Pakistan's stance on terrorism.

The same people, when they were in power, used to say that there is no hand of Pakistan. The former Home Minister and former Finance Minister should realise that such statements embolden Pakistan's stand," said Joshi. On April 22, terrorists attacked a group of tourists in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir , killing 26 people. India launched Operation Sindoor in response, targeting terrorist infrastructure in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir. Chidambaram questioned the government's narrative on the attack, suggesting that the terrorists could be "homegrown" and asking for evidence to prove they came from Pakistan. He also criticised the government for not disclosing details about Operation Sindoor. Live Events In a July 27 interview with the Quint news outlet, Chidambaram raised questions on whether the Government had taken any follow-up steps to prevent another Pahalgam. "Where are the terrorist attackers? Why have you not apprehended them? Why have you not even identified them? Suddenly, a news item emerges that we have arrested two or three people who gave them shelter. Now what happened to that?" Chidambaram asked. Further, the Congress leader who served as the Home Minister in the UPA tenure said, the Government was "unwilling to disclose what the NIA has done all these weeks. Have they identified the terrorists, and where did they come from? I mean, for all we know, they could be homegrown terrorists. Why do you assume that they came from Pakistan? There's no evidence of that. They are also hiding the losses."
