Prime Minister Narendra Modi is scheduled to inaugurate or lay the foundation stone for development projects worth around Rs 9,500 crore and address a BJP rally here on May 10. This marks his first public rally in Telangana following his 2024 re-election and historic BJP victories in the West Bengal and Assam assembly elections this month. In a post on 'X', Modi shared details of his visit to Karnataka and Telangana on Sunday.

''In the afternoon, I will arrive in Hyderabad, where I will inaugurate or lay the foundation stone for development works worth approximately 9,500 crore rupees. These projects are related to several key sectors, including roads, transportation (logistics), textiles, railways, and fuel,'' he said. The PM will also participate in a programme dedicating 'Sindhu Hospital' to the nation. ''In the evening, I will address a BJP gathering in the city. Frustrated by the misrule of the previous BRS and the current Congress government, Telangana is looking toward the BJP. The unprecedented support we are receiving underscores that our party is the top choice for Telangana!,'' he further said in the post.

Sources said Modi is likely to visit the residences of Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu and his deputy Pawan Kalyan in Hyderabad. Kalyan, who underwent a surgical procedure in April following a health complication, is currently recovering at his home here. Meanwhile, the Telangana CMO said a Central government official invited Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy to attend PM Modi's virtual inauguration of development projects at the Hyderabad International Convention Centre (HICC) here. The projects to be laid foundation by the PM include four-laning of Hyderabad-Panaji Economic Corridor and Zaheerabad Industrial Area. Modi will inaugurate various sections of Kazipet-Vijayawada multi-tracking project of railways, Greenfield POL (Petroleum, Oil, Lubricants) Terminal in Hyderabad and PM MITRA Park at Warangal. Telangana BJP chief spokesperson N V Subhash told PTI on Saturday that the party sees Telangana as a potential state where it can come to power on its own and that the party's state unit is confident of gaining momentum following PM Modi's visit. The state BJP unit is making elaborate arrangements for the rally and about two lakh people are expected to attend the event.

The party has undertaken a ''wall writing'' campaign in the state ahead of the rally. Union Ministers G Kishan Reddy and Bandi Sanjay Kumar and state BJP president N Ramchander Rao participated in the campaign, inviting people to the public meeting. Meanwhile, Malkajgiri Police Commissioner B Sumathi said in a release that elaborate security, law and order, and traffic arrangements have been made for the public meeting with deployment of approximately 2,000 police personnel and 620 traffic policemen, along with specialised units, for effective security duties.
