Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy said on Saturday that the radial road connecting Shamshabad with Kodangal will be completed by December 2027. He said the road will allow people to travel from the international airport to Kodangal in about 70 minutes, making the region more attractive to domestic and foreign investors.
He was speaking at an interaction with nearly 100 industrialists during the launch of the Kodangal Rural Agriculture Region Economy (RARE) Industrial Hub. “Making Kodangal a great industrial hub is my responsibility and my dream. Kodangal is my identity and self-respect,” he said.
The Chief Minister expressed satisfaction that some companies have already started construction work in the industrial hub. Several others, he said, have shown interest in setting up their units there.
He pointed out that Kodangal has strategic advantages because of its closeness to Karnataka, Maharashtra and Andhra Pradesh. Along with Kodangal, the areas of Chandanvelly, Sitarampur and Pargi are expected to see significant industrial development in the coming years.
Revanth Reddy said a 250-acre Kodangal Education Hub is being developed so that educational institutions come up alongside industrial infrastructure. He added that Advanced Technology Centres are being set up in all Assembly constituencies in the State with support from Tata Technologies to provide skill training to students.
Representatives from the aerospace, defence, green technology, renewable energy, steel, copper, textile and agro-based industries attended the interaction.
