Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy unveiled the ambitious ‘SPEED’ initiative on Friday. The acronym ‘SPEED’ stands for Smart, Proactive, Efficient, and Effective Delivery, reflecting the initiative’s core objectives of timely project completion and enhanced administrative efficiency.
Mission SPEED is designed to expedite the completion of 19 key projects critical to the state’s development. These projects encompass a broad range of infrastructural upgrades and urban enhancements, including the Musi Riverfront development, expansion of metro rail networks, establishment of new airports, creation of satellite towns, and the construction of elevated corridors in Secunderabad and other city areas. Also on the agenda are the Regional Ring Road (RRR), integrated residential school complexes, and a new Osmania Hospital. To ensure these projects meet their deadlines, Chief Minister Reddy will personally oversee progress through monthly reviews. The initiative seeks to address and remove bureaucratic obstacles that typically hinder the execution of large-scale projects by streamlining permissions and inter-departmental coordination at the chief minister’s level.
The SPEED initiative also underscores a commitment to inclusive development by extending its focus to rural areas, alongside urban centres. Department officials are tasked with preparing detailed plans for their respective projects, including timeframes and completion estimates. This structured approach is aimed at improving accountability and tracking project milestones. Moreover, the government will introduce an online portal managed by the planning department to monitor project progress transparently. This platform will provide real-time updates on the status of ongoing projects, thereby enhancing public visibility and engagement.
By implementing these measures, the Telangana government aims to foster a more dynamic and responsive development environment, ensuring that infrastructural growth aligns with the state’s evolving needs and ambitions.
