HYDERABAD: With large-scale infrastructure, security and hospitality arrangements being readied at Bharat Future City, officials say preparations for the Telangana Rising Global Summit-will be completed by Saturday night, ahead of a planned dry run on Sunday.
Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy, along with ministers Ponguleti Srinivasa Reddy,

Sources said the chief minister sought clarity on delegate facilities, cultural programmes, dining, and fire safety measures, ensuring that every department remains aligned.
Earlier in the day, Revenue and Disaster Management Minister Srinivasa Reddy inspected multiple sections of the venue and assessed ground-level readiness.
The venue features German tent-style makeshift structures equipped with high-end amenities to host international guests. Nearly 25 departments are involved in preparing session halls, guest amenities, parking spaces, power, drinking water arrangements and dining zones. Three helipads have already been completed, and a detailed traffic movement plan has been finalised.
Four main halls will host 27 thematic sessions, while a large digital media tunnel installation is being readied as one of the summit’s key attractions. Officials are also preparing for a major drone show that aims to secure a Guinness World Record.
Future City Development Authority Commissioner K Shashanka said preparations have been underway for nearly three weeks and are now in their final phase.
He said the government will showcase both short-term priorities and long-term targets as part of Vision 2047.
According to him, the event is set to draw around 600 VIPs and 1,500 delegates from across the world. In all, close to 2,000 guests, 2,500 government officials and 1,200 police personnel will be present at the venue.
“All logistical arrangements have been put in place,” Shashanka said, adding that a full-scale dry run would be held on Sunday. “We are making all necessary arrangements, and everything will be completed by tonight,” he said.
