HYDERABAD: Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao directed the officials to develop Warangal city in a planned manner. At the first district collectors’ conference in Hyderabad on Wednesday, Rao said Warangal should not be developed in a haphazard manner like Hyderabad was developed in the past.
“We have put a special focus on Warangal to make it second largest city after Hyderabad. We have already sanctioned `300 crore for its development and these funds should be utilised properly. We have established several educational institutions. Plan a ring road for the city. Construct a health university integrating KMCC and Central Jail,” Rao directed the officials concerned.
Since Warangal was selected under Heritage, Amruth and Smart City categories, Rao directed officials to spend funds released under these categories for the development of the city. Set up vegetable and non-veg food markets in a scientific way, he said.
The CM also wanted the officials to set up new storage units.
“Have separate veg and non-veg markers in all the corporations. We will also put pressure on the Centre to develop Mannanur Airport,” the CM said.
During the conference, Rao released the CDs and booklets on guidelines of know your district; plan your district. The CM also directed officials to identify sites for the setting up integrated collectors complexes, SP offices and multishop complexes in the district head quarters.
