CM promises to resolve water supply issues in Sangareddy 'NIMZ was sanctioned over 12,500 acres when J Geetha Reddy was a minister, but it was neglected by the previous BRS government from 2014 to 2023. Officials have since held discussions with farmers and revised compensation offers after Damodar Rajanarsimha informed me that only `2 lakh per acre was being offered for assigned lands and `5 lakh for patta lands. We are making efforts to establish industries here. Farmers have requested the establishment of a sugar industry. We are ready to provide funds from the state and seek support from the Centre, provided farmers are willing to form cooperatives,' Revanth said.

Referring to former prime minister Indira Gandhi and her tenure representing Medak in the Lok Sabha, the chief minister recalled that industries such as BDL and the Ordnance Factory were established during that period, and Patancheru developed into a mini-India attracting people from across the country.
