At a vibrant iftar event hosted by the Telangana government at Hyderabad’s LB Stadium, Chief Minister Revanth Reddy on Sunday reaffirmed his commitment to prioritizing Muslim community upliftment. Speaking to an enthusiastic audience, he outlined bold steps to foster development and counter divisive politics.
The CM sharply criticized political outfits accused of engineering religious divisions to spark unrest. Amid the holy month of Ramzan, he celebrated the iftar arrangement as a gesture of solidarity with fasting brothers and sisters.
‘We must amplify brotherhood and embrace communal harmony for national progress,’ Revanth Reddy declared, warning against forces sowing discord among faiths.
Backing words with deeds, he detailed appointments: Mohammad Azharuddin in the cabinet, Mohammad Ali Shabbir as advisor, and eight minority figures in key corporation posts. Sporting achievements weren’t overlooked—Mohammad Siraj’s DSP posting and Nikhat Zareen’s Rs 2 crore honor underscore the recognition.
Reflecting on history, the CM harked back to the 4% minority reservation introduced by YS Rajasekhara Reddy in undivided Andhra, which boosted access to education and employment. ‘I’m your brother in this government that belongs to you,’ he assured, seeking collective support.
The gathering united Minority Minister Azharuddin, MP Asaduddin Owaisi, advisor Shabbir, Congress leaders, and prominent personalities, all pledging to elevate Telangana to the top spot among India’s youngest states through unity.
